Well, I'm not so sure the analogy is correct. Git is build on a very simple core, with cleverly simple data structures, even if the porcelain is complex. Could it be more like:

SystemD : Upstart : SysV-Init =? Emacs : Vim : ed

The main point of the analogy is that, just as Subversion is basically CVS with the most glaring problems papered over, Upstart is basically SysV-Init with the most glaring problems papered over.

On the other hand, like Git, systemd represents a completely different way of attacking the problem at hand.

Vim is better than Emacs, but Upstart is worse than systemd.
