Just to make sure: The repo is in git format. Is it a public repo ? Or could you make a piblic demo repo ? Do I understand it right: Tortoise SVN talks directly to the Git server ? Isn't Tortoise SVN a client to talk to SVN server? What goes over the wire to the remote Git server, git or SVN ? To my understanding, "git svn" can use Git locally, and talk to an SVN server.
