well, what i did for now is to use 2 repos. i use git-svn to create a regular git-svn repo from svn, then an other one to create a regular git repo from the git-svn one. this has one benefit: git-svn requires a working tree, but i definitely want to publish only a bare repo. so here is what i have in the bare repo's config:

[remote "origin"]
        url = /path/to/git-svn/repo
        fetch = +refs/remotes/origin/tags/*:refs/tags/*
        fetch = +refs/remotes/origin/trunk:refs/heads/master
        fetch = +refs/remotes/origin/*:refs/heads/*

then a simple git fetch will do what i need. i'm not entirely sure this is the right think to do, but works for me :)

thanks,
