This is a comparison with SVN I've found on the Git site:

But one of the main issues IMO is the integration with IDEs - it took
quite a long time for SVN to catch up to CVS standards. Until an
analogous level is available for Git, how many will be willing to
consider trading in the ease of development for the advantages it may
offer?
We're not going to be using GIT at Apache. In this case it's use GIT
versus mail patches. I don't expect a landslide of people using this
method, just the most determined and those who understand that using an
SCM while working on their changes is a good idea. There is just no way
to work like this with SVN, it was just not designed to work like this.
Some one who is not a committer cannot incrementally check in their
changes so the existing IDE integration doesn't help in this regard.
There is someone working on an Eclipse GIT plugin, but anyone wanting to
use the standard SVN diff and attach patches to JIRA can continue to do
so. It's not like it's one or the other.
Well - if the proposal is of an optional layer that sits on top of SVN and provides easy branching
for patch submission/tracking, then yes it seems OTOH something really worth exploring.
Once the Git infrastructure has been set up I'd be up for taking it for a spin.
