You can set up your local git-svn repo to always push all branches to 
github like this:

In the local repo, add the github remote:

git remote add github [url-to-your-github-repo]

Now, edit the file inside [repo]/.git/config.

Set fetch to do remotes instead of heads (modify the existing line under 
the github remote):

    fetch = +refs/remotes/*:refs/remotes/bare/*

Secondly: Add a push configuration, to push all remotes to heads:

    push = refs/remotes/*:refs/heads/*

Now, pushing to github will push all subversion branches:

git push github

I did a quick demo of exactly this at the time-point 46:50 in this video:
