The git repo on Savannah will eventually become the official git tree.  
I'm still experimenting with the git capabilities of Savannah.

I'd like to switch us from SVN to git after the next release.  I took a 
survey of the current maintainers and almost all of them are currently 
using git.  Most of the patches being submitted are also against a git tree.

What's in the Savannah git tree is from git.kernel.org.  I've checked 
and it is also compatible with the tree on repo.or.cz.  As long as you 
use the obvious options to git-svn, the resulting tree should be compatible.
