... it would

- not use MSys, but MSVC++,

- have a backing by a startup company,

- not use any of Git's source code at all, but reimplement everything in 
  closed source,

- come with a shrink wrapped box and a huge manual,

- do a lot of BS advertisement,

- offer overprized courses for management, in fancy locations,

- would cost around 50 dollars for a single license,

- would cost around 1500 dollars for a site-wide license with free 
  upgrades for 3 years and 2 free training courses,

- be dog slow, eating resources like mad, and

- crash frequently.

Other questions?

Ciao,
