I don't find it insulting at all.  I have 15+ years experience
using svn with both GCC and FreeBSD repositories.  GCC changed
from svn and git with little regard to its impact on developers
(except for those pushing the move to git).  gfortran has lost
one of its most active bug fixer/contributors because he knows
0 about git.  By extension FreeBSD lost one of the few users
that actually tried to ensure GCC works on FreeBSD (hopefully,
people don't use g++'s complex math without testing!).
