in most of the cases it is not necessary, but the diff mails are used as an additional review step and sometimes additional changes follow. But it is a way to do it and people are used to do it.

I'm thinking more and more about it and I think the best solution is to keep svn as the central repo and do a git svn clone from there, so I have the advantage of the existing infrastructure and will get the nice features from git.
