I doubt whether you have enough information to form an informed opinion.

The tree is relatively new and hasn't been publicized so that is not
surprising. However that doesn't mean things will stay that way.

You'd have equally spared it if the git tree had been more widely
publicized and you'd been aware of it. I think it would not be a good
idea to suddenly replace the current svn with the contents of the git
tree or to try moving parts of it piece by piece (that'd waste more than
a few hours). A better approach is to make sure the git tree is usable
for most people and then start migrating from svn to it. One way you can
help with that is to test it on Windows.
