I don't agree to this at all. For one thing git is very resource |
| 11 |
intensive compared to rsync mirroring, and there are anyways things |
| 12 |
that needs to be properly prepared in a staging area before being |
| 13 |
presented to a user. For one thing we can't expect users to keep an up |
| 14 |
to date copy of all gentoo developer's OpenPGP keys to verify each git |
| 15 |
commit, additionally this will cause issues with retirement and |
| 16 |
similar situations (certificate revocation, subkey rotations, expiries). |

Git is a good tool for revision control (if used properly), but it is |
| 19 |
not a panacea |
