Well it's not because people don't understand how Cygwin is working  
that
it is to be taken for granted that Cygwin/Git is crap! As I said  
git svn
is only working on Cywgin AFAIK. I'm using Cygwin/Git on many
repositories without problem. So experience may vary :)

Right. The experience should be good if you use binmode.

But never use textmode. You'll not get an error right away.
At first git seems to work. But later it reports weird errors.
The experience is really bad. Don't do that.

And if you advertise git on Cygwin please tell people to
avoid textmode. It is an important detail.
