Hi,

I recently migrated from svn to git as well, but I've abandoned the svn server altogether. What I noticed is that the merges do not show up properly when you look at the svn repo with git. Obviously because svn doesn't track that information. I assume that such a problem would continue if you continued using the svn server. Personally, i would recommend migrating to git altogether, it isn't actually that difficult. The only issue I had was fixing up the merges. Sorry I can't be of more help, I'm just letting you know what issues I faced with svn.

Good luck, Tim.
