Well I assume SVN would work just as well; there's nothing port-specific about it. So I would just remove this sentence. I guess our BuildingGtk page doesn't mention SVN because we figure there's no way anybody outside Apple would ever want to use SVN when git is available. We really, really don't understand why you still use it. :P

I would add one sentence here: "Note that the procedure for building release tarballs is different.  For more information..."
