There's a git repository. It's public. You can look at what goes into
the FreeBSD git clone to get your assurance that things aren't being
snuck in. People are using it, right now.

Honestly, I'd rather see subversion grow this kind of cryptographic
signing of each commit in the short term then migrate everyone over to
git.

Those who want to use git can use it, right now. Honest.
