I would think that people who already thought SVN is great probably continued thinking SVN is great, and people who thought otherwise, continue to think otherwise. I currently have to use both in my job, and look forward to when our conversion to git is complete.
Imo the core of git is superior, but the command line interface of SVN is much better. Git is just horribly messy. The distributed stuff push/pull had a lot of work and improvements, but the work/commit cycle is just messy, at least when compared to SVN or mercurial.
That's fine, I just happen to respectfully disagree :) I started with git though, so I'm sure that has something to do with it. I learned and used git for quite a while before I had to use svn for work, and I found myself very annoyed with certain svn-isms.
