Git solves a different problem. Look up state machine replication, and then think about the case where some portion of the participants (max 1/3) are malicious. In git how do you deal where there is no central 'trusted repo' to push to, and a malicious participant sends a commit to some subset of participants but not to others (i.e. equivocates)?
