Bump.

Guys, we really need to solve this. I'd rather chew off my leg than
being on SVN for yet another release cycle. The last time we talked in
this thread people roamed off into bikeshedding about git-annex and
shallow clones and whatever. This is exactly why I proposed to let
kdegames-data stay in SVN *for now*, while kdegames (the source code)
moves to Git *now*. I'll start a new thread on this here and on k-c-d
(which has to decide on module layout changes).

Greetings
Stefan
