Petr Baudis has said he can no longer maintain the "Git - SVN Crash Course" page at http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html, and that he would prefer it go on the wiki. I think this is a really useful resource, so I've done just that:

	https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitSvnCrashCourse

I've already made some fairly substantial changes, and plan to add more as I have time over the next week. In particular, I've tried to make it talk more about git-svn than it did, but please rename it if you feel the title still oversells the git-svn aspect.

I plan to redirect links on the GitDocumentation page next weekend, so please let me know before then if you object.

  Personally, I think conflacting git and git svn like now fogs things
up a bit and may be confusing; I think it would be clearer to describe
the git svn usage separately, or at a separate section at the end. Do
not take me overly seriously, though.
  Anyway, I just added a pointer to the wiki page at the top of my
instance, where plenty of stuff still links. I think at points it's
easier to read and should not be *grossly* outdated at any point yet,
so I added a link to it to the wiki page too.
