The answer is no, SVN has to be the official repo. The git repository
Apache maintains is a read only replica. However, they have set it up
so that you can use git entirely to checkout, make changes, and
generate patches. See http://git.apache.org/, http://www.apache.org/dev/git.html
, and http://wiki.apache.org/general/GitAtApache. So if you prefer
git you should be able to forget the official repository is in SVN and
just live in the git world.

Just curious - are apache projects allowed to use git as the 'repo

As part of our move to a TLP we need to move our code base out of

I plan to do this move tomorrow. It should not affect any of your
outstanding checkouts (including ones where you have made changes),
as there is a simple SVN command that will change your checkout to
be based on the new repository. Once I do this all checkouts will
need to happen from the new repo.
I'll send another message once it's done which will include info on
how to update your existing checkouts.
