Heya,

I don't think this is true. The proposal is to implement
git-remote-svn, which would allow _native_ interaction with svn
repositories, so without using 'git svn'. It would allow 'git clone
svn://example.com/myrepo' and subsequent "git pull"s from that svn
source. Do you agree that makes (part of) your comments moot, or am I
missing something?
