You must be aware that you can use git locally to interface with SVN?

See brief tutorial:
http://viget.com/extend/effectively-using-git-with-subversion
Manual: http://git-scm.com/docs/git-svn

Side note, I found this https://github.com/sushdm/git_svn_externals for
dealing with svn:externals, if you need to fetch those externals in order
to use/build the software.  But you should manage any changes/patches to
externals in their own proper tree.
