For users that (try to) help us find bugs (and we need these people),
saying "it did work at r1234" is easier that giving a hash (isn't this
how a git state is defined? here I show my ignorance about it).

To make things clearer, there is some merit to the increasingness of the
svn revision numbers (in two different branches at a time). From what I
understand about git, it is lost in the new world.

Anyway, I'll use whatever is decided...
