I think it can be quite helpful when tracking down how code was
developed.  I often find myself tracking back into the old-gcc
repository to figure out when a bug was introduced.

I don't think it should be a requirement, but I think it would be very
helpful.  And switching to a new version control system is likely to
be our only chance to incorporate it.
