How do I migrate an SVN repository with history to a new Git repository?

Question

I read the Git manual, FAQ, Git - SVN crash course, etc. and they all explain this and that, but nowhere can you find a simple instruction like:

SVN repository in: <

Answer 1

Converting svn submodule/folder 'MyModule' into git with history without tags nor branches.

• git svn clone --no-metadata --trunk=SomeFolder1/SomeFolder2/SomeFolder3/MyModule http://svnhost:port/repo_root_folder/MyModule_temp -A C:\cheetah\svn\authors-transform.txt
• git clone MyModule_temp MyModule
• cd MyModule
• git flow init
• git remote set-url origin https://userid@stashhost/stash/scm/xyzxyz/MyModule.git
• git push -u origin master
• git push -u origin develop

To retain svn ignore list use the above comments after step 1
