I would say "What a weird name for a VCS. Whether that will work ...", but then I have to remind myself of the dictionary meaning of "git". So who knows. Maybe we will be adopting all kinds of martial arts terminology. For example: "I use Karate to manage my code. I divide everything using chops. When a kata is done, ..."
Did you know that the English way to pronounce "jujutsu" isn't how the Japanese pronounce it? The Japanese way to pronounce it could actually be a lot easier for many non-English speakers (I'd anyway argue it's a common enough word that people are familiar enough with it to pronounce it in a way that's comfortable to them).
That's funny, I thought the name means 呪術, but the person in that audio clip is (probably) pronouncing 柔術. I prefer my interpretation though (git with magic).
Ambiguous romanization is weird, I wish romanization rules would just follow IME rules (except in the case of consecutive n's, that'd look weird).

That's kind of tautological ...
However, yes, that is certainly true. Japanese has a pitch accent rather than a stress accent and all syllables are roughly the same length. English speakers don't tend to talk that way.
