git-svn: how do I create a new svn branch via git?

Question

I have a git repository which tracks an svn repository. I cloned it using --stdlayout.

I created a new local branch via git checkout -b foobar

@kch I just (7 December 2008) compiled the v1.6.1-rc1 tag of git and it does contain the git svn branch command and the documentation for it. So the v1.6.1 release of git should (hopefully) contain this command.
