Drupal moves Software Revision Control to Git

Our favourite Content Management System – Drupal is moving over from CVS to Git today, meanwhile drupal.org will be down for 12 hours…

More and more people seem to be completely side-stepping subversion and moving straight to Git, is subversion yesterday’s news?

I do like subversion and think it’s an excellent Software Version Control system, but I do feel that Git may be stealing the march on it…

Any thoughts?
