Ok, after some talking with a guy, LP is definitely not going to support git.
Too much work in its maintainance, integrating with LP, [..].

But, *but*:

19:24 <beuno> hanska, there will be git imports, so you will be able to use the
branches in LP
19:25 <hanska> beuno: yes, that needs some "manual" activity though
19:25 <beuno> no, we have continuos imports
19:25 <beuno> we already have them for svn and cvs
19:25 <hanska> ah, that's good then

This means that we could continue working on Alioth's git, the code would then
automatically imported into Bzr and:

19:30 <hanska> beuno: is it possible to mangle the bugstatus from commit
messages?
19:31 <hanska> like "Added patch for foo (LP: #12345)", or kinda?
19:32 <beuno> hanska, marking bugs as fixed from commit messages is in the
pipeline
19:32 <beuno> hanska, not sure when it's set to land, but it's somewhere on the
roadmap before July as well
19:32 <hanska> beuno: ok, great, thank you.

So we would eventually get some kind of SCM<>BTS integration. But also, before
July, it is possible that Alioth upgrades to FusionForge (a GForge fork) --
maybe we could expect more features there? Going to ask Alioth admins.

Kindly,
David
