Re: git export to svn

Even with init - your going to need to do a fetch so that you have a
copy of the svn in your tree - if the git tree you've already got has
the svn references (take a look at git-log if it seems to have an svn
line in the log then at some point someone pulled in the svn tree into
git) if not your going to effectively be pulling the entire svn tree
into your git tree.

The only other real way to get your changes / patches into svn is to
dump them out as patches and them individually apply / commit them to
your svn tree.
