Sebastian,
I think you have the right idea.
One last question
If a person wants to work on a tag branch, would the right idea be to create new branch on it as to not screw up the previous tag?

Right now, git-svn import (or clone) will convert tags and branches as

I would like it if git could pick up subversion tags and translate them

SVN tags aren't like git tags. A "tag" in SVN is just another directory,
which you can modify at will.

Well, a SVN tag could be represented as a Git branch _and_ a Git tag
pointing to the head of that branch. Whenever any such "tag branch"
advances, the user should be notified, the user responsible for the
further commits to the SVN "tag" should be seriously hurt and the Git
tag should be overwritten (git tag -f).

Sam, is that basically what you want?

Cheers,
Sebastian
