As far as I can remember, they started with providing Mercurial support, not SVN. Perhaps you were thinking of Google Code (they had SVN support, then Hg, then Git)?

Personally, I'd rather go deeper in what I'm learning on at the moment and finish something substantial before diving into some other topic. It probably depends on how much of a multi-tasker the person is, but I find it difficult not to concentrate on one topic at a time.
I do understand what you're trying to say, though.
Or maybe that's the wrong way to look at it.
