For what is worth, I am in favor of switching to git, as I am already using git-svn locally, with regular dcommit's. What was done in the pkg-kde team was (AFAIK) a progressive migration in the "who wants to migrate his package can do so" style, with a documented process (namespaces, content of the leftover README in the svn, …). And it worked pretty well. With enough mind's flexibility, it's totally workeable. (But in the end I don't really care what the VCS is [as long as there's a git-$foo tool available :-p ]).
