That ignores two very important issues that I already had mentioned: - existing references, both in-repository, e.g. in commit messages referring to earlier commits, as well as out-of-repository, e.g. referring to commits in mails, blog posts, etc - GPG-signed commits Those issues cannot just be hand-waved away. The "convert everything" strategy also ignores the problem of interacting with servers and collaborators. Think of hosting repositories, rediscovering forgotten work trees, and of the "D" in DSCM.
