What impact does this have on regression testers? Do the regression 
scripts handle everything, or do testers need to take some action? 
(E.g., installing git.)

I suggest posting to the boost-testing list to give a the testers what 
they need to know (and a heads-up). I don't follow this list closely, 
and just happened to come across this post.

Thanks,
