Well, it's the git way. In git there's author, reviewer, committer,
etc., so a big transition like this is nice to have using a more git-
like commit message that starts the real-git history.
I'm unsure we need to stitch the switch to git to a nice version
number. gnulib and git are both implementation details of nano, not
actual front-end, user oriented bits that are going to be noticed at
all in nano. In fact, after the gnulib change, nano will be mostly the
same binary, right? But I really don't care about that. I think it's
better to take advantage of Mike's work and go ahead with the switch to
git ASAP, now that we're in a good position to do it.
A few other comments:
Should we stop committing ChangeLog entries and get a ChangeLog
generated from git history?
We probably want to go over the website and repo docs that reference
SVN before the switch.
