One of the main reasons is being able to work (i.e. make commits)  
offline, without being connected to the remote repository. But if  
that's all I needed, I could have used something like SVK (which I did  
experiment with, for awhile).

The main thing I like about Git is that it's a lot faster, generally  
speaking, than Subversion, in terms of things like making commits,  
creating branches, and so forth. And I can use Git to track Subversion  
repositories, for those projects (like some at work) that can't move  
away from Subversion.
