What are the advantages of git over git-svn?

Question

The advantages of using git-svn over git are obvious(svn compatibility), but what are the advantages of git over git-svn?

Answer 1

It simply means you have one less VCS to manage in your development chain (svn).
In term of administration:

• you are left with distributed repositories managed by Git, each one autonomous with their complete history
• you do not have to maintain a connection to a central SVN repo.
• you can organize your backups differently (pushing your data to a remote backup bare repo, or exporting your Git repo through git bundle)

And of course you can manage all the advantages of Git over SVN
