It's been useful in the past (when Wine went from CVS to git) to make it 
unnecessary for all developers to switch which software they're using at 
the same time. With that particular project, it really went from having a 
CVS repository and a git gateway to having a git repository and a CVS 
gateway without users seeing a difference (except that the CVS access was 
suddenly faster).

Then, of course, the git users were able to start making use of the more 
flexible representation of history, since the official repository then 
could represent it.
