Does it really matter? FLOW3 started on Git, v4 Core is on Git, some 
projects moved to Git, so in the end everything will end up in Git.

Months after the move of v4 core devs twitter, etc. about hoping to get 
Git working (e.g. on the recent TYPO3 camp).

Maybe the people who like svn over git for certain projects are tired of 
mentioning the disadvantages of Git? It certainly looks better if you 
only write positive things about something than writing negative things 
about the alternative. I hardly respond to anything about git/gerrit 
anymore; I don't want to look like a grumpy, moaning figure which 
doesn't like "progress".

Maybe the whole move from svn/mantis to git/gerrit/forge is considered a 
fait accompli?

I already expect replies to this posting that git is really good and 
advanced, and problems are temporary, and help is available, etc.

Git/Gerrit is not very simple for most people. If contributors don't get 
used to it soon enough the project may lose momentum. That is not simple 
to solve.
