To my knowledge, GIT stores the old versions on your computer (larger file on your computer) but SVN only stores the latest (smaller file on your computer), so your old history would be lost if the repository disappears. I remember seeing something about caching the log for offline viewing, but it wouldn't have all the old versions.
