Please give some short references or explanation about what you expect 
to become harder to do after the migration. I guess if migration plans 
are to be reconsidered there may need to be a clear understanding why 
the added work or complexity you are implying is worth waiting for.

You should probably propose a new date for git migration with a viable 
rationale. Just saying you don't understand why migration is not on hold 
is not really fair.

Personally I am thinking you have started an important and large task. 
But it is not clear when you will be satisfied.  In the meantime someone 
else may show up with additional work that need to be done prior to 
migration, with tools they know rather than tools they don't know yet.
