How are you merging without branches?
Git is mostly faster and more flexible than svn, and the merging works far better. Unless svn's merging has improved in the past decade or so, which is entirely possible.
When I switched to git from svn, the main differences were: merging was usable, making new branches and switching branches and such were _instant_ instead of many seconds, and I could work more flexibly (git doesn't require being connected to the server).
