29	29	OK, so you are addicted to git, and now you have to work on a team project that is hosted in a remote subversion repository ... and it is making you depressed :-(. Well, you can use manage your local svn working copy using git and be happy again!

	32	+There is a git-svn tool (type man git-svn in the terminal for details), but that adds yet another tool into the mix that you have to learn. So while you could use it and YMMV for projects tht are going to be on svn forever, I recommend you just use the [[git+svn protocol>>http://www.lostechies.com/blogs/derickbailey/archive/2010/02/03/branch-per-feature-how-i-manage-subversion-with-git-branches.aspx]] instead, especially if you are typically working on one particular branch of the remote svn repository.
