If the storage is handled properly, RPi can do wonders. I've used RPi1 as a git sever in our company for 5 years with encrypted USB flash drive as storage. We must have committed at-least a million lines of code into it & we were using it every day. Except for changing some memory related flags in git, I didn't change much w.r.t to git. I had another encrypted USB flash drive to which the files were backed up, interestingly this flash drive failed but the primary drive never died till date. The git server is running 24*7 on RPi1 for past 5 years.
