Answer 2

What I did was

1 Create a new repo in Bonobo

2 Clone that to my desktop

3 In the clone,

git svn init http://192.168.x.y/svn/my_repo/trunk
git svn fetch
git push origin master

Answer 3

I too, was/is in the same boat having to migrate our SVN repositories to git (using Bonobo server).

Pretty much followed the instructions in Troy Hunts' blog post here

I deviated by creating an authors file to map svn users to git users, thus appending --authors ../authors.txt to the svn2git command line.

When supplying an authors file, svn2git will stop if there is no record in the file.

The authors file format is 1 line per author
