E.g. I have no idea how easy it will be to keep Bzr-Emacs in > sync with Gnus's repository. I have tried keeping my bzr repo of Emacs updated. It is extremely slow compared to GIT. When a connection breaks during a 'bzr pull', I need to restart the slow process all over again. I would do the same with GIT too, since the performance is good, I have nothing to complain. I would still prefer if the tools could wait for sometime before giving up. Usually when I use WIFI connectivity, there are intermittent connection breakage due to feeble signal, I would be happy if the tools (SCM) could just retry the previous request a few times before giving up. -dhruva
