I don't think ASF is supporting any way to get changes back into the SVN repository but they're hosting all these Git read-only mirrors and even some on github if I understand correctly.
I think there's some flag in git help svn (like instead of using --stdlayout, you use --branches, --tags, etc.). Dunno if that helps and you may have already looked at that.
