And Ohloh stack count gives yet another idea.  Both Debian popularity
counter and number of Ohloh stacks are mentioned in GitSurvey2007[*1*],
around question about used SCMs.  Google Trends above not yet, and
perhaps will not because it is even more skewed than mentioned results,
perhaps even more than result of Git _User's_ Survey 2007.
