You certainly make some good points about the downsides of RTC. RTC's streams are often compared to git's branches because they're the closest construct, but they are definitely very different and have pretty minimal overlap, considering they're basically the parallel construct. IMO stashing changes was not bad (suspending change sets, I believe it was called), but perhaps I was mostly doing that within 1 stream and not between streams. I agree that code review was not great, though I'm not a _huge_ fan of GitHub's comment/PR review mechanism either. I'm not aware of code reviewing built in to git itself, though I could be totally missing it.

I guess you can pull a branch or email a patch and diff it with the diff tool of your choice.

There's a few options for gir review UIs, e.g. Gerrit or GitLab. Kind of unix-y, just have the VCS be a good VCS.
