It _might_ be related to the fact that the original Googe Code team had a substantial involvement in Subversion... So, don't believe that the reason Git is not supported by Google Code is a technical one (just like it was no technical reason at all for Python to choose Hg over Git). Oh, and I have to be very clear on some important point: they are free to choose what they want. I, for one, am happy that not everybody and her dog uses Git. That way, we can steal cute ideas from other projects like Hg or Bazaar.
