The problem is that Savannah does not host the web pages.  If Savannah
did then we would support svn and git and the others for web pages.
But the web pages are hosted on www.gnu.org/software/$PROJECT and that
is maintained by the FSF.  We do not have access to the FSF systems.
The FSF require CVS for updating those pages.  There isn't anything us
Savannah folks can do about it.

Yes.  There is no disagreement there.
