First, configuration CRLF conversion in Git and SVN is quite different, so it may not be easy to have the solution that will work in all cases. Second, in many cases, you can workaround this issue. If I understood your situation correctly, you use SVN repo where text files are marked with svn:eol-style=native. In this case, SVN stores these files with LF endings internally, and git-svn receives files in that format (at least, it is so on Debian). Practically all Windows editors do not have problems to open and edit files with LF endings, but some of them will write back using CRLF. You do not want CRLF to get in your Git repository, so you can do that by setting core.autocrlf=input. This might work for you...
