hmm, while I like git for my local work I still would prefer a central 
repository that ensures
a linear history where the history can not be changed easily. I still run this 
combination
locally for repositories where groups of people can commit to.

I feel that one has to change the workflow when transitioning to git and adapt 
to the multi-repository model with a very limited set of comitters for a single 
repository 
and pulls between repositories or patches per mail as the norm.

Just replacing svn by git and go on like before does not seem to be the best 
approach to me.
IMHO we need to put in a little more thinking about how we want to have the 
workflow
before switching to git.

just my 0.02€
