Well, not so much "lazy" though :-) All's fine and well if you do this 
stuff for a living but if you're the peripheral type that just submits 
the occasional bugfix, an unfamiliar development environment will not 
help bring you _beyond_ that occasional unidiff point to more active 
involvement.

My vote for GIT was just that though, one vote...
