I think it would look the same, except for instead of monotonically
increasing decimal numbers in the "revision" column, you'd see random
hexadecimal ones (typically 6-8 digits long).
It would be possible to use 'git describe' [1] to give something like this:
r-110272-g19c9e9c7
If we tag the initial commit in the repository as 'r'. The number refers
to the number of commits after the tag 'r'.
We could optionally tag WebKit versions, and get something like:
v525.19-12345-g19c9e9c7
Meaning 12345 commits after v525.19 was tagged. Doing the latter does
not prevent the former, as you can use --match r to force the initial tag.

The monotonic labels that Ryosuke desires are known in git language as

slightly-offtopic, but I had not heard of "generation numbers" before.
Based on a cursory web-learning pass (*), it sounds like they're not
quite the same thing as SVN revisions, since SVN revision numers are
unique to a repo, and two revisions on two different branches may have
the same generation number. Since we do actually keep branches in the
master repo, this wouldn't quite be the same (although it might
possibly be acceptable). Please correct me if I'm wrong ...
