By putting the focus on version control, the line of changes made with each
commit (With the possibility to reverse changes), and not verbose e-mails.
That works well with svn, and we have the sequential labels which are
e.g. important for bisecting changes.
I do not see how I can find this out with git easily.

I strongly disagree. Are you aware that github is a commercial
company, github inc. [1] ?
What about gitlab? or Microsoft's codeplex? There are other services
similar to github, why github?
What happens if github goes out of business?
R-project should be maintained in the academic network and under
auspices of universities.
[*] GitHub, Inc.
