Exactly. I've been exploring this option and it seems quite straightforward and 
simple. No need to
touch much, if anything.

Our uninformed guess was that a switch to svnpubsub would make it impossible to 
manage website
content other than through svn/git (speaking of which, does that even work 
after our switch to git?
;)). So the current process of simply copying it into the correct place on 
people would not work
anymore.

AIUI this just works for content managed by the CMS. With our approach we'd 
just use svnpubsub, not
the CMS, for the reasons stated above.
