- The argument I gave was the fact that that stable branch would be
maintained under monotone, so with that argument, I would not consider
the transition to GIT a random event.
- 'OE in fit state' is hard to tell given the numerous variables, but
yes, the infrastructure seems stable to me.
- I did not mean read-only, but a maintained stable branch under monotone.

Anyhow, given the responses I think the concensus/answer to my
question is 'no, should not'.

Thanks for the replies,
