(This is completely unrelated to my previous posts about using git for Gentoo, it's not the only placing I'm looking at implementing Git).

Is there a sane and git-recommended way to clone repos created with git-svn?

If I do: 'git-svn clone ....', and then git-clone of that directory, the second clone cannot use git-svn to follow the original SVN or feed stuff back to the original SVN.

If I create them separately (or by plain copying the first one to create the second), then pulling between them works fine.

The copying just feels messy compared to the initial git-clone functionality.
