I don't think there is any git2svn thing, but if your history is linear (which is really the only thing SVN can handle, since SVN doesn't really do "merges" in the git sense at all), you could just write some silly script to extract the patches one by one and commit them using SVN. Or use "tailor", which should be able to convert from pretty much anything into pretty much anything (again, assuming it's linear). Or, and this gets extra points for being disgusting, use "git-cvsserver" to serve a remote CVS repo, then cvssuck to create a local CVS repo out of it, and then do cvs2svn to create a SVN repo. Ta-daa! (Ok, that last one really is too ugly to live, but if it works, it really sounds like the true rube-goldberg way to do it, and should be done just because it is there, to paraphrase George Mallory).
