No clue what that means, but for me it worked quite well on Windows. But then 
I did not do a git-svn-clone.

They will unlikely show something different, because they just parse git's 
output.

You are downloading each and every of the nearly 7k svn revision. It is kinda 
supposed to be slow.

There are other services, like gitorious and whatnot, as well. Maybe give them 
at least a look before we decide for one.

If you like I can give you (temporary) ssh access to my server, so you can 
play there a little.

If github does not support CIA, we would setup the notification script on some 
other server, which syncs with github.

I don't really know, but in the past it seemed to work ok.
I recommend using an editor which supports Unix line endings though, since 
somehow we had lots of line ending changes in that repos' commits. But maybe 
the guys did not know about the autocrlf option.
And my assumption is that that conversion gets only applied to the working 
copy, and is converted to Unix line endings when you commit. (And back to 
"native" when you checkout, just as SVN does.)

> How would trac be affected by this?
There is a plugin for Trac which allows using Git as a backend. It is not 
extremely stunning, but it works.
