Ah cool, thanks for clarifying this.

hgsubversion of course, which is supposed to be what git-svn is already.
At the moment, I already use git with our SVN server, so I can show some
of the advantages (for instance, renaming works much better than with
SVN itself :) ), and I guess it also makes the migration easier as
everyone can try with Git locally and we switch from SVN to Git once
everyone has switched locally.

Thanks for all the input so far!
