AFAIK it still has (had?) some issues (performance-wise or something),
that's why I mentioned that perhaps it should be improved (with some
help of our community), and then imported.  On the positive side, it
seems that it's a rather active project, and there's a lot interest in
it, so it should not take too long.

Being able to checkout the sources is very desirable, but not at the
cost of importing another heavy 3rd-party tool, which Subversion is.
