Two points of view: thinkvitamin.com/code/… ; findbestopensource.com/article-detail/git-vs-subversion - Google git versus subversion for more. Read some. Make the decision you think is best for your environment. – voretaq7♦ Jan 24 at 8:47

Subversion is, in essence, a "better CVS": a centralised client/server version control system.

Git is a "stupid content tracker" that has build a fairly popular distributed version control system on top of it.

http://whygitisbetterthanx.com/ should help answer some of the questions about what is seen as better in Git.
