We need Emacs to continue to support it. I don't think anyone disagrees with that (though some people might ask why GNU is still using CVS). But isn't this discussion about package-vc.el? I don't think I understand how a convenience feature intended to simplify Emacs package installation and development could affect the GNU project as a whole. Are there any GNU packages for Emacs that still use CVS? If yes, why don't they use Git?
