 Yes, this would be best, I think.

 We have discussed the possibility of migrating away from Subversion, but
 we are not considering it at this time.

 We generally don’t grant commit access to individuals without a
 substantial history of contributions. And waiting on a ticket is not
 significantly worse than waiting on a pull request.
