I disagree on this point. I want to reduce the workload, not increasing it.
We have already some fragmentation in KDE Extras packages.
Some packages are on svn, some other in git.
I would like to avoid this and fix the issue once for all.
I don't want to continue to switch between vcs, use different workflow, etc...
Moreover, if we have a single vcs, with common practices
(KDE Extras could use git-buildpackage), contributors will find their
way easily.

IMHO, It's better than saying "this KDE extras package A uses svn,
this one uses git, and this package C use this workflow".

Cheers,

Fathi
