Yes. And the reference to it isn't pushed to the remote GIT server. If I clone 
the remote repo, then "git remote -v" doesn't show the reference anymore.

As long as I don't understand what's going on here, I can't suggest how to 
improve the documentation.

Tried that, but the stuff, I saw on screen, doesn't make clear how GIT knew 
about what to do here.

I also still don't know how I can restore that whole setup if anything, I have 
on my local side, gets lost. Means, that anything, that I have left, is the 
stuff, I pushed to the remote GIT and the SVN, I want to have in my own tree. 
Which steps do I have to perform to restore the setup and have it working again 
without getting conflicts?

Maybe the risk of getting problems is too high and I should copy over stuff, I 
got from SVN, from time to time manually to my GIT repo?
