I'd prefer the lack of perl, the big bit of useful functionality from
a developer workflow that covers functions in the perl functionality
is git send-email I think (I wish it just didn't need perl)
git-send-email actually is *not* pulled in by the 'git' package. To get
that, you need to install git-email or git-all.
'git' gives you, among other things, git-am, git-submodule.
This splitiness is not helpful for a developer workstation - to see
some tutorial telling to use git am and then see:
$ git am foo.patch
git: 'am' is not a git command. See 'git --help'
We definitely shouldn't go less than 'git', 'git-all' might be a bit
much though, with the cvs/svn/tk, dependencies.
