I'm confused. Git is a source control repo, like svn.

Trac is an issue tracker.

Okay, you switched from svn to git (which to me seems somewhat 
orthogonal to issue tracker, although it's true that certain issue 
tracker software integrates with some versioning control systems and not 
others, like trac does with svn).

But what are you using for issue tracking now, instead of Trac?  git is 
not an issue tracker, so I'm not sure what you mean by "git's better 
issue handling", git doesn't do issue handling (any more than svn does). 
Do you mean you're using github.com as your git host, and their issue 
tracker? Or something else?
