More generally, you should be able to adapt this procedure to migrate any SVN repository to GIT.
git-svn clone \ --prefix=svn/ --stdlayout --authors-file=./phpfreechat_authors_file \ https://phpfreechat.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/phpfreechat/ phpfreechat git clone http://github.com/nothingmuch/git-svn-abandon.git cd phpfreechat ../git-svn-abandon/git-svn-abandon-fix-refs git remote add origin git@github.com:kerphi/phpfreechat.git git push --all git push --tags
./phpfreechat_authors_file should contains data formated like this :
pseudo1 = Name Surname <mail@domain> pseudo2 = Name2 Surname2 <mail2@domain2>
