At least try to maintain some believability in your exaggerations. I've
explicitly said that I'm not asking for it to be permanently removed if
there are people willing to maintain it.

"The rules" being something which is not actually defined. svn-howto.txt
(which seems to be what people talking about "rules" think contains
them) neither has all the things claimed as "rules" nor contains ONLY
them. It has things nobody follows in practice. It's easy to accuse
anyone you want if everyone breaks some "rules" and you can pick which
to enforce.

Talking about "the rules" is nothing but an appeal to authority when you
mean "this is different from how I'm used to doing things / like things
done".
