As git is free software, you are free to use it in any way you see fit,
as
long as you adhere to its licensing terms, and to the copyright
restrictions on using the term "git". Thus there is no need to ask
permission and there does not on the git side exist any entity interested
in "cross marketing activities".

As one of Software Freedom Conservancy projects, I suspect that the
Git PLC git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx may be the closest to such "entity"
that represents open source Git community's interest to the outside
world with help from lawyers.
Not that I think Git PLC is interested in such a cross marketting
arrangement, but if Devart wants to advertise on their webpage
saying "we support Git by making contributions to SFC" or something
like that, they are the people to talk to.
