This is contrib stuff, so I'll limit the comments mostly to style.

Many of our scripts do redirection at the beginning, like:

	echo >&2 ...

Also omitting 1 when redirecting to stderr is an idiom.

Does exit value 2 have any significance, or just any non-zero
value would do?

We do not seem to do CamelCase on shell variable names.  This is
minor, as it is mostly taste.

Align case arms with "case/esac", just like you would do
"switch" and "case" in C.

... and do not omit ';;' just like you do not omit "break" in
the last case arm in switch in C.

	if <<command>>
        then

without semicolon.

GIT_DIR?

OldHead=`git rev-parse --verify HEAD`

Wouldn't it possible that $1 might have $IFS in it here, would
it?

	RevToMerge=`git rev-parse --verify "$1"`

If you are expecting "$1" to be only an existing branch, not
just an arbitrary rev, you might want to be more strict by
saying:

	RevToMerge=`git show-ref -s refs/heads/"$1"` ||
        die "Can't merge nonexistent branch."

Piping grep to sed often makes your script look amateurish.
How about...

        script='s|^git-svn-id:.*/\([^/]*\)@\([0-9]*\) [0-9a-f].*|\1 revision \2|p'
        git show -s --pretty=format:%b $RevToMerge |
        sed -n -e "$script"

This graft look very yucky, and would not scale.

Presumably, the tree in HEAD commit before dcommit match the one
in NewRevision, right?  I wonder if there is a way to convince
"git-svn" after dcommit that the commit you made yourself above
is where it should stay.
