Also it makes more sense to introduce a root prefix map for the whole set
of project related commands (not necessarily restricted to VCS):

C-x / d - project dir
C-x / f - project find file
C-x / r - project find regexp
C-x / t - project tag search
C-x / s - project search/grep
C-x / % - project query-replace
C-x / l - project log
C-x / = - project diff
...
