I get the joke, but I don't think we read about technology for the comedy of it.

People who would've found ZFS interesting on its own merit won't read about it, and those who are interested in Git would.

Those interested in got should, because we have Docker borrowing git's terminology heavily but acting much more like ZFS snapshots and clones.

I read it to learn more about ZFS, and understood that the mention of git was more to point out there'd be stuff about snapshotting and sharing changes.

I wasn't disappointed.
