We can tell the EGit folks to start a feature parity wiki
page ;-)
I haven't tried it yet, but James more or less summarizes my feelings. Wait
till there is near parity.

I use git day to day here to track CDT CVS, it works
remarkably well,
and git's margic merging is a real time saver!
That
said I'd be against moving to egit until all the day-to-day
workflows can
be easily and safely accomplished in the IDE.
To be forced to the command
line for merge (for example) would
introduce a barrier to entry not present
for CVS users. Especially
for those sat on Windows where native git
has traditionally been weak.
0.9 may have everything we need andI'm all for
being a bleeding edge
user, but I'd rather we started from a point where
the tooling has
feature parity with
CVS.
Cheers,
James
