a git plan, long term

[Tom Zeller]

On the last dev call I had a note regarding git, more thoughts follow.

I like the idea of migrating to git mostly because all history is
local, which I think would help my workflow.

However, I think changing our source code repository before the next
major version is released would extend our timeline, which seems
undefendable to me.

That being said, I encourage estimating a git migration plan, if that
can be done in a limited amount of time by someone who has the time.
Especially if the community has relevant experience.

My motivation at this time is that every now and then someone suggests
git to me, or wonders what they should work on, or can contribute, so
just putting those together.
