If you are using macports, you will notice that git svn init will give you this erro git: 'svn' is not a git-command. This is because the default build of the macports git does not build git-svn. You can do the following steps to fix this

sudo port deactivate git
sudo port install git +svn

Be preapeared for a long build - this will pull in svn and related dependencies.

Thank you! I was wondering where git-svn was hiding.

I had to use:

sudo port deactivate git-core

Not sure if the package name has changed. My `port version` is "Version: 1.8.2" if that matters.

These are embraced by http://git-scm.com/ and works out of the box with git-svn so save your self's the time, and enjoy a much faster approach that actually works.

The MacPorts port name for Git is "git-core" instead of "git". Also the doc and python26 variants are also helpful.

{{{
sudo port deactivate git-core
sudo port install git-core +svn+doc+python26
}}}
