This is not the problem they are redesigning for, they are redesigning the infrastructure. Github is a live example of a different interface on top of git and that is working fine (though some may have their complaints with it), no redesign of git's underlying "infrastructure" needed.

This is an inconvenience for secrets (have become more commonplace since the creation of git) but by my understanding this was a very deliberate choice in the design of git. It grantees integrity in the distributed source. For example you can check the hash of the last commit en be sure that your mirror did not inject malicious code.
