Switching the tracker to git



Hello,

As it stands now, the security tracker is using subversion. 

Here are the facts as far as I can tell:

. people doing work on the tracker are using svn to commit
. h01ger is doing a regular git-svn import of the tracker repository
. there is a regular cron job run by joeyh that does the automatic updates:
  joeyh r28744 data/CVE/list * automatic update
. the web interface probably has some automated process to pull the
latest updates over svn

My guess is that the only reason that subversion is still used is
inertia and that people would be happier with git. However, I'm curious
to know if anyone thinks otherwise?

I don't exactly have the time right now to volunteer for changing
things, but I thought that the first step would be to see what people
thought, and then maybe if it was clear what people's preferences were,
perhaps someone might volunteer!
