This seems like a perfectly good question to me. Far and away the preferred VCS, and it's not like it wastes a ton of disk space.
I'm +1 to adding git
We're currently discussing in #fedora-workstation the pro's and cons of including just git-core or git (which also pulls in perl). I'm ok either way.
I'd prefer the lack of perl, the big bit of useful functionality from a developer workflow that covers functions in the perl functionality is git send-email I think (I wish it just didn't need perl)
git-send-email actually is *not* pulled in by the 'git' package. To get that, you need to install git-email or git-all.
'git' gives you, among other things, git-am, git-submodule.
This splitiness is not helpful for a developer workstation - to see some tutorial telling to use git am and then see:
$ git am foo.patch git: 'am' is not a git command. See 'git --help'
We definitely shouldn't go less than 'git', 'git-all' might be a bit much though, with the cvs/svn/tk, dependencies.
