The git-scm.com site currently links to https://github.com/git/git for the (non-tarball) source code. Somebody raised the question[1] of whether it should point to kernel.org instead. Do people find one interface more or less pleasing than the other? Do we want to prefer kernel.org as more "official" or less commercial?

I could see arguments both ways, so I thought I'd take a straw poll of what people on the list think.
