I agree with John -- you should just get developer access and be careful 
not to break things (easier said than done, especially for yours truly).

For future reference, though, I've been using git-svn (which lets you 
use git for a local repository that tracks a remote SVN repository) on a 
hobby-time project and have found it pretty useful for keeping my own 
local history without disturbing (or even having write access to) the 
central SVN repository.  Of course, moving from svn to git requires 
retraining the fingers a little bit, but it's not too bad.

Cheers,
Mike
