For each of this subdirectories I have usergroups defined which has no

If I understood the manual correctly I can stick on that structure and
easily work here with the unix-permission to grant access to the folders?
I think I have to test then acl with freebsd to have more then one group for
each directory.

Dealing with acl sounds like a lot of work and complications to me.
Have a look at gitolite. It is covered quite nice in the progit book [1]

The second question is, I someone commits some files with svn an email is
sent to a svn-commit mailinglist so changes can easily be discussed.
The current mail is sent in html format with a colored diff, so it is easier
to read.

Is something similar possible with git or do you suggest a complete
approach?

For this you might want to look at Gerrit [2]. It's a web-based code
review. Although it is not email based (AFAIK).

nazri.
