Being an active Fediverse user, I've realized that what people realize is that when they say they want to decentralize Git, they often aren't thinking about decentralizing Git; they are thinking about decentralizing GitHub/GitLab/Gitea/etc.. They want to decentralize the social aspect, the issues trackers, the ability to automatically pull fresh changes from other parts of the web via webhooks.
