Well, you're right that we use the features that MediaWiki offers out-of-the-box rather sparsely right now, but in my opinion we should actually aim at changing that rather than to cut back on features.
Even now I can think quickly think of quite a list of things that would be missing from a Git*b Wiki:
* Image uploads (as far as i can see you have to upload the files elsewhere first, e.g. in a repository) * Templates * Categories * Redirects * Even fundamental styling/layouting would be hard to impossible (for beginners: try to re-create our main page [1] or our latest release notes [2]) * Useful things like Namespaces (including user pages) / Subpages * Useful tools like they can be found on [3] * Watchlists and the like (e.g. [4] which is immensely useful)
An probably a lot more I'm forgetting right now...
As I said before: We possibly could make do without all that, but if there's any chance to stick with MediaWiki that would be my obvious choice.
