Is that a git-svn clone?

Otherwise I do not see why you avoid a second clone. Cloning from your 
windows machine the OSX repo won't be slower than cloning from the 
original repo? Or I missed something...

If you are speaking about a git-svn clone, I understand. In this case I 
generally I just rsync the .git directory from one machine to the other:

    $ mkdir project
    $ cd project
    $ rsync -a machine:/path/to/project/.git .
    $ git reset --hard HEAD

And you are done.

Pascal.
