OT flame? Ok I jump in. 

+1 for git... I mistakenly did a push -force deleting days of commits... I called a colleague and asked to push back his latest commit, that saved the day. Having multiple copy is like having lot of backups, so awesome. How could you do that in SVN?

Git is the FTP killer, now you deploy with it.

Github is not an hype, all communities use it, so you're or you're out! All the company I've worked use it, why? Answer above, + pull requests, teams, issues tracker...
