That depends heavily on how you work and what your needs are.

Personally, I recommend still keeping things in SVN because:
a) provides some sense of backup
b) maintains history of all your work
c) allows multiple developers to work together more easily

However, if you have other ways to solve those problems, or if
they're not important to you, you may not need SVN.
