Just pushed on https://github.com/avalentino/gdal a new mirror of
https://svn.osgeo.org/gdal generated with git-svn and the --stdlayout
option (as suggested by Etienne).

The tool seems to handle both svn branches and tags ad git branches in
the svn remote, so I manually created branches and tags on the git side
pointing to them.

I should be able to sync the master branch with git-svn rebase but I
have no idea, at the moment, on hos to sync branches.

I'm going to upload a bzipped version of the git svn clone on

https://github.com/avalentino/gdal/downloads

regards
