I've studied a couple of recent INFRA tickets, and it looks like creating
Git repositories is handled via https://selfserve.apache.org/

So Git->SVN migration boils down to creating an empty repository, pushing
code there. Then we should ask Infra to make SVN read-only, and things like
that.

At this point I think it makes sense to just create a side Git repository
(e.g. a throw-away on GitHub), migrate JMeter code from SVN there, apply
Ant to Gradle converter, and then check how it turns out.

I don't really see much sense in migrating to Gradle before Git conversion
(there are VCS-specific build steps).

I don't really see much benefit from migrating to Git in a hurry either.
There are build/release tasks like "site update", and I think we might want
to have separate Git repository to serve the site contents.
At this point I don't know how JMeter site works, so I don't know it should
be mapped to Git/Gradle.

I think I could handle the conversion, however it would be great if someone
volunteers.
The thing is I prepare a talk for https://jpoint.ru/en/ , and I help to
organize https://heisenbug-piter.ru/en/ this spring, so Git/Gradle is not
my priority at the moment.
