The problem is that their mentoring organization use a global Subversion repository hosted on Google Code. The solution : git-svn. So I wrote this little how-to set git-svn up with Mono SoC SVN (just change mono-soc-2008 with your organization repository) :

  • First checkout the current whole mono soc svn repository : svn checkout https://mono-soc-2008.googlecode.com/svn/ mono-soc-2008 --username your.google.code.username
  • You should be prompted with a password request, to get it go to : http://code.google.com/hosting/settings
  • Add three folders corresponding to your project’s trunk, branches and tags : svn mkdir tags/[your project name] branches/[your project name] trunk/[your project name]
  • Commit these changes : svn commit -m "Added folders for project [your project name]"
  • Use git-svn clone to get a working git-svn environment with the command : git-svn clone --tags=tags/[your project name] --trunk=trunk/[your project name] --branches=branches/[your project name] --username=your.google.code.username https://mono-soc-2008.googlecode.com/svn

Now you can use standard git commands to add files, revert changes, do bisect or whatever. Once you want to mirror your changes back to SVN, just do a git-svn rebase to resolve possible conflicts with svn HEAD and then a git-svn dcommit will convert your git history to the svn repository.
