In my experience, most of the people who are reluctant to switch from svn also have command line angst. They can only work with point-click tools. (Believe me, there are a lot of developers like that).
I don’t disagree with you guys, but people who don’t want to take the time to learn Git but are comfortable with SVN CLI do exist. This post was made for one of them :)
Looks neat.

I concur — until we get tools that are as pointy-clicky as subclipse and tortoisesvn, there are many users who just won’t switch.
