Other version control systems: I think the list needs to be sorted alphabetically, it's really long. (You could also reduce and offer a text field "other.)

Resources: I wouldn't put git-scm.com and the pro-git book into the same item. git-scm.com was supposed to be "the" git community website (and also "the" reference on git), and the fact that it looks like a pro-git book sales platform is a different matter.

An interesting question would be: "What is the first source you consider Git?", or even: "What is the Git homepage?"... Really, getting input on what "the Git homepage" should be like would be nice, but not comparable to previous surveys.

In any case, thanks for taking care of the survey again!
