s/detaults/defaults/ :)

I'd agree that moving this to Git's default name makes sense.

Though my overall preference is still to delete this whole testsvn thing entirely (I have some other pending tree-wide changes that are being held up by it, too). After getting "would you mind holding off until..." from Jonathan in [1], I've been waiting almost 2 years. Maybe now is the time?
