To be honest, I already installed Git on one of the computers I work on.
The "argh" expressed actually my horror to see it installed lot of Unix utilities which I 
already had (via UnxUtils), adding noise and confusion in the path, instead of having only 
one exe at one entry point in the path.
Beside, as Steve pointed out, while SCMs are great, it becomes a bit annoying to have to 
install CSV, SVN, Git, Mercurial, Bazaar (the one I use...), and even Monotone, Fossil and 
other more or less exotic VCSes just to get some source files out of the Web... :-)
Not to mention the need to learn at least some rudiments of using these softwares...

I didn't know this one, it (might) addresses at least my last statement... Thanks.

Note: although I am not fan of Git (mostly uninformed prejudice...), I acknowledge that 
GitHub is an excellent site, and part of my previous remarks were aimed at SF not 
offering, like GitHub, the possibility to get a source archive out of the current state of 
the branch.
