Git seems a little weird at first if you're really used to CVS and SVN,
but it's super powerful and pretty much everyone seems to be moving to
it now.
+1 to declaring git the default Docs Project SCM. I'm brand-new with
it, I still get stumbles, but it is clearly more useful than the CVS/SVN
paradigm.
I'd prefer to see *all* of our hosted books using the same SCM, to
simplify training in Docs. Since we finally have the chance to abandon
CVS, let's not do the half-step to SVN. We're not some enterprise
constrained by process and archaic beliefs!
Writer groups who start off a book on
fedorahosted.org have the right to
make their own choice, but a very strong recommendation of a specific
SCM seems like a sane idea to me. (Then we can just debate the specific
SCM.)
