SYNOPSIS
svn-all-fast-export [options] [Path to subversion repository]DESCRIPTION
svn-all-fast-export is a tool to convert your svn repositories to git.You will need to have a copy of your svn repository and to write some rules to specify how the conversion will be done, for instance, you can manage how the tags and branches will be managed writing the appropriate rules.
