I don't think that your implied "subversion = old, git = new" assumption 
is valid. Potlatch and the OSM rails port may be using git but these 
projects are driven by different people and we can and will decide 
things for ourselves.

If you personally prefer git, you may use the git-svn tool to access the 
JOSM repository, without trying to force everyone else to switch to your 
preferred version control system.

Bye
Frederik
