@pcdinh: The source repository of CakePHP is primarily a tool meant to
assist the *developers* of CakePHP, not the users. Those who wish to
contribute to the development of CakePHP will find Git to be a more
powerful and social tool than SVN.

What personal need to you have to interact with CakePHP's SVN
repository?

I totally hear your argument that SVN currently enjoys better all-
around support and wide-spread usage. I'm just not sure if it makes
sense to apply in this context hence my previous question.
