If you are syncing with SVN::Mirror, part of SVK, or via svnsync, these tools leave breadcrumbs as svn properties that point to where the repository was copied from. So, in your commit log the message will be the URL of the immediately[*] upstream repository. SVN didn't ever really support clone per se, what did you use to copy the repository? One thing that isn't documented to my knowledge is that you can use 'git commit --amend' to alter the URL in the 'git-svn-id:' in the commit message of the top commit as a crude form of grafting. If the master repository changes URL or UUID that's probably what you'd have to do. But in your case, you probably want to figure out which switches you're missing.
