For the record, I'm not part of either community and find things to
dislike about both of them.

git.or.cz: I personally prefer its plain style, but it has way too
much information on the front page (why is so much download
information on that page rather than hidden behind the "download" link
that currently just goes to an ftp directory?)

git-scm.com: Much better organized, but suffers from web 2.0
shininess.  Also, every time I look at it my eyes have to read
EVERYTHING to figure out what ANYTHING is.  For instance, why is there
that random column of "projects using git" that seems to only exist to
distract me from the important stuff?
