I was prepared to put up with it not being a bare repository (asides the extra /.git/ in the URL it's pretty much the same). On the git host I'd set refs/heads/trunk to be ref: refs/remotes/svn/trunk And I'm hoping that a cron of git svn fetch ; git-update-server-info will do the trick. It appeared to keep it in sync when I fetch downstream. I don't know if I'm being naive though expecting that to work as I don't grok all that git-svn needs to work properly - but I'm working on it ;-) My current plan is for developers to push/pull to git to share amongst the git-devs, and to push to svn when wanting to share with everyone else..
