Heh ok, my comments stands though. Git-svn is fine for keep tracking
of local changes, and what you've done with your repo is just used it
as a way to publish your local changes (so no real advantage over just
taring it up and uploading, outside of convenience). But trying to use
it as a DVCS requires the backflips you described and I don't think
its worth the possible trouble.
