It always surprises me when people express enthusiasm for
this kind of idea, since my instinct assumption is the exact
opposite: that this couldn't possibly be feasible or practical.
Just out of curiosity, how large are the git-managed projects
that you have successfully handled this way? Number of
files, lines of code, bytes or commits per day? Did you ever
run into a software project where a fully decentralized git
solution was impractical, e.g. because pulling in the daily
updates took more than an hour on your available bandwidth?
