Comment on Want Git Preinstalled On The Next OS X?parent

CVS and SVN are installed by default. So are Python and Ruby.

CVS is installed with Xcode as far as I can tell; Its in the iPhone SDK download (open the iPhone SDK.pkg up in Pacifist and look under DeveloperToolsCLI.pkg/usr/bin/).

Though I'm surprised OS X ships with SVN by default. FWIW, the version of SVN that ships is 1.4.4 (and it still hasn't been updated as of 10.5.6 or iPhone SDK for 2.2.1.

And Python.framework and Ruby.framework are installed to let you run other programs people write. Same reason you have Java, Tcl/Tk and all the ObjC/Cocoa frameworks. Having the frameworks != writing code.

They only ship one JVM, and it's a JDK. OS X ships with javac et. al.
