Git can generate normal patches that you can simply apply and commit after testing. Or you could have a Git-SVN repo of your own setup, fetch the git commits, cherry pick hem into your SVN based tree, and dcommit them back up. I use Git-SVN every day at work. It's either that or kill myself as SVN is wretched in every way.
