Yes but git is probably the least dangerous of credentials to keep stale. A 
backdoor getting pushed with a stale and stolen SSH private key would be 
noticed and rectified in no time.

What most people are concerned about right now is the incomplete documentation 
of any and all credentials - not just git write access - and more generally 
the lack of transparency. Once that is sorted out, we can start arguing about 
what should be revoked.
