I object to the use of term "SCM", because - as you can see from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/scm - the term SCM also means "Software
Configuration Management", hence is ambiguous.

Also, I prefer the term "version control" or "version control system",
because that's more to the point than "source code management" or
"source control management".

Point taken.


        * doc/gnulib-intro.texi (Steady Development): Mention the Git
        * repository instead of the CVS one.

In general, more people know about CVS than git, and more people
have the "cvs" program installed than the "git" program. Therefore here
I would continue to mention that gnulib is available via CVS.

Fair enough.

I'll propose an updated version of the patch by tonight.

Cheers,
