Just setup your personal git-svn clone of any third party "svn only"
repository/project. 'git svn clone', setup a proper cron for
fetch/rebase/push and and you are done having a git rep to access any
svn project.

As a matter of fact I prefer to use 'git svn' over plain svn in terms of
speed and ease of use anyway.  ;)

As these git svn reposotories are "read only" by design as long as svn
is used as main repository we probably won't provide these for all those
typo3 projects that are still on svn. teams/projects can however request
to be migrated to git.
