Read-only SVN mirror of a Git repository

Question

Hello

I want to use Git and Github for the development of a project. But college requisites says that I must use a SVN repo of their own.

I think it should be possible to develop using Git–Github and use the SVN as a mirror of the Git Repo. Nobody will commit directly to the SVN repo, only to the git repo.

My question is, How to I do this?

I know I can use git-svn and have two ways synch. But I don't want to use it, has it make things too complicated and doesn't allow full git features.

EDIT:

It turns out that as GitHub SVN repos are not real SVN Repos it is not possible to use svnsync. So I started the development of a solution:

Answer 1

Why not just use git-svn to push updates from your personal git repository to the svn repo once in a while? All you have to do is make it look like svn's being used, so just make sure the names of the committers come through in the commits.

Perhaps github's SVN support and github's SVN write support might come in handy in whatever you eventually end up doing.
