I have a bunch of fixes and improvements I'd like to contribute but am
reluctant to put up with the hideous pull times and steep learning curve
of bzr.
Is Emacs moving to git?
PS I hate git but do think it has "won". I doubt that's a popular
opinion but there you go.

I have no special knowledge, but I doubt it will happen any time soon.
Emacs maintainers are quite capable of understanding a patch file
regardless of how it's generated, though, so there's no reason to horde
your goodies until they switch to your preferred tool.

I don't think it will happen in the near future.
FYI there are too many threads about Git and Bazaar, such as:

Right. I was seeking a follow up since that last one was a month ago and
rms said he was waiting on the bzr maintainer to state the position.

There are plans to move the `elpa' branch to Git.
But I don't know of any plans to move Emacs's trunk to Git.
