`git svn` is implemented in Perl (which is supposedly bundled with your Git package, but I'm not sure), and "SVN.pm" is a Perl module (a library written in Perl, ".pm" stands for "Perl Module").
@INC is an internal variable used by Perl to locate its modules. Its contents is partially inferred from the Perl's installation location and partially from the environment.
This [1] should help you get started with affecting @INC.
