While I've use SVN for several years, what attracted me to git is having a local master.  For example, I want a VSI-local master copy of the LLVM sources so all the developers can work against it.  LLVM doesn't know or care what that I'm doing that.  (and there are lots of LLVM consumers doing exactly the same thing).  What SVN users have to do is run their own svn server, clone the repo, etc. and then struggle with trying to promote stuff next year or so (all the while, LLVM is moving forward).  It is much easier to git.  Essentially, we'll be "offline" from LLVM for a while.
