Nb. there is also so called "remote helper" approach, where you can
use repositories using other SCM just like native remote Git
repositories.  But I think it is in early beta, or even alpha stages -
- adding support for Subversion was this year Google Summer of Code
2011 project.

Errr... isn't it more or less expected for _any_ remote repository added, be it native (git) or Subversion one?

Remote tracking branches are not usually pushed / fetched, unless you clone in a mirror mode, or set refspecs for fecthing / pushing by hand...
