To answer my question - I think the man page should be updated.

Also, while searching 'git svn speed', I found that a git clone of mono is available: http://www.mono-project.com/GitSVN A shame this page is not referenced my other devel resources on mono's web site at all... also it uses a real user's account to make the clone (rather than annonymous svn), so to update the git clone by git-svn, one needs a real dev account - that is not a problem for the purpose of sending in patches as the occasional dev.
