I don't have much git clue but some may remember that JOSM was in git, briefly, when Gabriel Ebner did his work on dropping segments. Conceptually, what would be the difference between putting JOSM on git and putting it on the project-wide SVN altogehter? If the main advantage of git is that it would become easier for "anyone" to contribute even if no maintainer has the time to review a patch, then the same could be achieved by going the same way that almost all other OSM applications go and put it on svn.openstreetmap.org - couldn't it? Also, if we were to use git, would we depend on a third-party service like "github", or is git also usable (in a sensible way) without such a site?
