Not necessarily easier, but then again sometimes a personal git server is what one needs/wants. Other times, gitolite is what one needs or wants. It's all a matter of use-case and preference.
Also, practise makes perfect, and there's no way to get to know the intricacies of git than to practise. Setting up a git server, even just for the practise, is a very useful activity.
They'll be the same. There's nothing distro-specific to git.
