I don't agree to this at all. For one thing git is very resource
intensive compared to rsync mirroring, and there are anyways things
that needs to be properly prepared in a staging area before being
presented to a user. For one thing we can't expect users to keep an up
to date copy of all gentoo developer's OpenPGP keys to verify each git
commit, additionally this will cause issues with retirement and
similar situations (certificate revocation, subkey rotations, expiries).

Git is a good tool for revision control (if used properly), but it is
not a panacea
