Thanks, Richard. Regarding why -- I'm talking about the version that will be installed by default when someone creates a web2py app on the hosting platform my company provides, PythonAnywhere -- which would also affect the version used by the "Try it now online" link on the front page of www.web2py.com. I agree that doing version control the web2py way is probably more sensible than making the whole web2py folder a git repo, but if people do want to follow the git route, it would be better if we didn't have that "trap" in there for them :-)
