Another drawback is that previously you could download a specific directory 
from the SVN repository (for example, www/areas/l10n/es, about 4.5MB), whereas 
now you have to download the entire websites/l10n-kde-org Git repository, 
currently over 1GB.

As some teams may not yet know, you can force the download of a single 
directory from a Git repository using a sparse checkout. For example, to 
download only the part corresponding to the Spanish team's directory:

  git clone -n --depth=1 --filter=tree:0  git at invent.kde.org:websites/l10n-kde-
org.git
  cd l10n-kde-org
  git sparse-checkout set --no-cone /teams/es /teams/es
  git checkout

This local copy could then be updated with a regular git pull.

Cheers everyone,
