Sticking to a m= oribund version-control system will compound and
exacerbate = the project's difficulty in attracting new talent.

It impedes people stuck on old (low spec) computers, too. =46or examp= le,
in my adventures w/ git-bzr, i have managed to do the initi= al clone, but
512M RAM is not enough to achieve the tantalizing= ly compact footprint
that =22git gc --aggressive=22 purports. = I'm a stubborn fool and will find
a way eventually (suggestions= from git-bzr / git experts welcome=21), but
it's an unqualifie= d slog that i imagine is just not worth the trouble
for others = in similar straits.
I=E2=80=99m using git-bzr myself and one of my compute= rs overheats while doing the initial clone from bzr :-)
