Git vs. SVN

Like all similarly sized projects, we need a way to collaborate on code, to handle bug reports, and to make the latest version available for testiung.

After Yahoo’s anouncement to use startup GitHub’s services to manage their code, (GitHub is powered by troubled startup EngineYard, but that’s another issue) I decided that they’ve reachjed maturity enough to move there.
JQuery and Moo both use GIT, let us git going ourselves.

Little did I know how hard it is to move to git.  And I must be missing something, as I don’t see even basic error reporting for non git users.  [Lighthouse?]

Unfortunately, Google code is not an option, as they don’t host projects that are licensed under the OSI (we have a modified OSI license).

I have no desire to tie myself to Sourceforge, and have not yet found a collaboration CMS to  our liking to host it locally.  So, we are still in need of good ideas, at least until I learn GITHub more thoroughly.

Anybody have ideas?
