Well, no, the real answer is that for those who actually write code and apply patches, an e-mail based workflow is simpler: Git has tools to apply patches right from Unix mailboxes, so one is able to just save a thread with the final patch series to a file and apply it. Some people also prefer discussing patches inline -- in the same e-mail thread the patch series being discussed had started.
I'm aware of at least one big project sporting the same approach to handling bugs -- PostgreSQL.
But there was an announcement that an experimental JIRA instance has been set up for Git [1]. I'm not sure what its current status is, but you could look at it.
Also Git's mirror on github [2] supposedly provides for pull requests. Again, not sure whether/how they're handled.
