Exactly, and hits the point of the thread. Few busineses benefit this 
mess of changes all over the place with sketchy backups, not reliably 
pulling in everyone else's work, etc?

git is useful where your team needs to pull in and modify code from 
another site and then maintain those changes indefinitely without 
pushing them back to the main server.

It could be useful in extremely large corporations where you want to 
bring down core modules into your department and incorporate them into a 
product, but it's not for the average run-of-the-mill developer shop IMHO.
