On the subject of the topic, I'm getting tired of this git euforia. The linked message says zero about the reason beyond a simple direct voting. So, for no reason they decided to have a voting and ignore the reasons why people vote whatever they did? Sounds like a pretty useless voting for me.
Well, except if you want to be popular and use all the tools the cool kids use these days, I guess that's a valid reason. Something tells me that there will be less 'I'm too cool to say positive things about PHP' kind of threads in HN.
