One killer feature is git bisect: http://lwn.net/Articles/317154/

With bisect, hunting for a commit that introduced a regression is made
less arduous, and at best can be fully automated with a test framework.

It could also be a bare repo (just a single gnucash.git file, kind of
like a tarball but with full history) which people could download (or
even get off BitTorrent if we want to save some bandwidth), do a git
pull, and start working immediately.
