Subject: Best practices for maintaining a subversion mirror?

Hi,
I just got myself a new server, and as I'm the major Git-using person
at my work, I'd like to set a mirror of our Subversion repository up
to hopefully convert a few more people. At the moment, I've done git
svn clone http://svn..., and then git clone --bare to make a --bare
version of this clone.
Now that I have this mirror, I have this entry in my crontab to update
it hourly:
0 * * * * cd /.git && /usr/bin/git --git-dir=. svn fetch &&
/usr/bin/git update-ref refs/heads/master refs/remotes/git-svn
This seems to be working nicely as a readonly interface, but when I
clone this repository (git clone git://foo/repo.git) - served via
git-daemon - I can't seem to get svn rebase to work on it, which means
I can't dcommit my changes back to Subversion.
Am I doing things generally the right way, or am I doing it completely
wrong? :-) Any tips appreciated!
