I agree. I don’t want to upset the apple cart and I’m definitely not trying to force a switch through. The github import was trivial so I’m more than happy to delete and reimport as scons default evolves. Of course, I have no idea if hg can import patch sets exported from git with format-patch.

But that's more his problem...at least it doesn't make me leap into action immediately.
