I agree that on the whole git is better, but not in all ways.
Subversion has certain merits, including being a bit more intuitive
(IMO).

Believe me I would use git if I felt it fit my needs here. I was using
Darcs way back when. I enjoy the benefits of distributed VCS. But in
this case, where I have a bunch of little odds-and-ends that I want to
keep subdivided but within a single repo, svn fits better.
