Reducing diffs between > BSDs is much more important then making sure we don't add a little repobloat. This has nothing to do with the specific source control tool we use. What O'brien is refering to is the ability of looking back in our own source code and see how things evolved, what changed. Each non-functional change made add to the noise, making it more difficult to identify the functional changes. That said, I think synching with other BSD is more important. -- Daniel C.
