At least you can easily build your entire user land and kernel (and ports) on FreeBSD. It's very straight forward compared to Linux distros (Gentoo/arch some what excluded I guess). I suppose this isn't much consolation if you're worried about the upstream svn repo itself.....
Git has built in svn support these days anyway - to claim svn is vital due to some workflow, is as grarpamp stated, total baloney. Attachment to svn is the grumpy old man yellin "get orf mah lawn" and the kid using git points to his hover board that he's standing on and smirks while saying "I'm not ON your lawn old man, I's floatin" then grabs his ball off the grass and zooms off over the hedge. Can understand that some folks don't want to break a trail on the bleeding edge, but git ain't a makerspace quad copter test bed any more, it's a highly polished retail product with zoom stripes on the side. 11 years - a long time for continually developed software..
