Well, yes, I agree. But, at least git-svn.txt says this:

BUGS ---- ... svn:keywords can't be ignored in Subversion (at least I don't know of a way to ignore them).

I guess one might be able to reach that information through the svn API.

Or just propget svn:keywords and sed s/\$Id\(:[^$]*\)\$/$Id$/ all files with keywords, for all relevant keywords. Eww.
