I wouldn't say it's very bold at all. I don't have any links but if you've been using git for the past decade, you would have heard something along these lines. "A toolkit for building VCS's" is one thing I remember reading. There was little in the way of polish when it came to porcelain commands when people started using it. I think there are still many people who don't use it who still think it's still this way.
