newbie question: git on existing svn repo via eclipse on windows

Hello,

I hope I'm right here to post this question and it hasn't been answered 
100k times already.
I'm currently programming my bachelor-thesis and my university only 
gives me a svn repository. Since I'm working a big amount of time 
offline I'd like to have the features a dvcs offers me to commit 
whenever i have completed a minor step even while I'm offline, so I 
don't forget what I've done until i get online again.
Is there a simple way to do this especially on windows while using 
eclipse and egit.

Thanks Michael

Depends on your definition of "simple". Egit has no SVN support whatsoever,
so you have to use git-svn and egit side-by-side to accomplish your tasks.
