Hi Patrick! In which way do you like to access the apache svn?
Did you already work with git? Do you only like to manage local branches with git (git on top of a svn checkout)? Do you like to use the git-svn bridge for doing all the local management with git? The way I use git for Apache projects is the 'git on top' approach (I'll be more verbose since I do not know what you already know): 1.) do a svn co 2.) create a .gitignore file which contains /target and .svn 3.) modify my .svnignore to contain .git and .gitignore 4.) $> git-init 5.) $> git-add src 6.) $> git-status to check if the index doesn't contain crap 7.) $> git-commit -m"initial import from SVN" I subsequently do some svn update and commit them to my local git master branche. In parallel I do test branches with $> git-checkout -b mytestbranch see git-branch for more info If the changes work out, you can merge them into master and afterwards perform a svn commit to the Apache repo. Another way would be to use the git-svn bridge. pro: you'd have the whole history in git (so you could do a git-blame for example) con: you cannot use mvn scm (e.g. for releasing), since the maven-scm-providers-svn relies on having a SVN structure locally and the maven-scm-providers-git relies on having a remote git repo...
