There’s one big advantage over ftp you haven’t touched, speed; using git’s deltas and compression and eliminating ftps connections overhead is a huge benefit.
I also use a post-update hook, using method 4.1 described here http://gitolite.com/deploy.html
node-modules and minified js/css are not checked in, the hook also does an npm install and all the browserify stuff using the npm run strategy described by James Halliday here http://substack.net/task_automation_with_npm_run (who needs extra ulta-complicated task runners??)
