We should probably be thinking in terms of post-release for this change.  
During the pre-release freeze, the release team doesn't typically allow 
changes that extraneous to fixing the specific issue they are letting a 
package into Testing to fix.  The .git-dpm file is shipped in the package, so 
if we drop git-dpm, we're going to have to deal with getting .git-dpm removals 
through the release team for any package that needs update during the freeze.

That will also give us time to make sure we have a proper migration strategy 
and sufficient documentation.
