I do think worth pointing out that, quite significantly, you can now use git-daemon to push changes into a repo, something very handy for private networks. This is enabled by passing the --enable=receive-pack to the git-daemon (usually in the [x]?inetd configuration). This has the benefit of: 1) More efficient git transport for both pushes and pulls. 2) A less ugly URL to use: git://server/repo, instead of, say, ssh+git://server/path/to/repos/repo. 3) Ability to easily move your repo without changing the URL in each client, by changing the URL in the git-daemon config file (xinetd) --- say, if you want to move your repo to a striped disk, or similar.
