Getting started with git-svn

git-svn is a git command that allows using git to interact with Subversion repositories. git-svn is part of git, meaning that is NOT a plugin but actually bundled with your git installation. SourceTree also happens to support this command so you can use it with your usual workflow.

Cloning the SVN repository

You need to create a new local copy of the repository with the command

Set-up remote git repository on a standard server

The first thing to do is to install Git on the remote server.

Once you do that the rest of the process is split into three sections:

Server set-up
Local set-up (push commits)
Server (pull commits)

Many users when are given server access, do not have root (or sudo) privileges and can not simply do sudo apt-get install python-pip . Here's an easy way you can install and use pip without root (or sudo) access in a local directory. Note : This works without easy_install too.
