How to install Git and git-svn on Mac OS X

It's hard to find good Google links for installing git-svn on Mac OS X. Here is my piece.

• Install port: download it at http://darwinports.com and run the installer
• run sudo port install subversion-perlbindings (it takes a while as the installer download the internet)
• run sudo port install git-core +svn (don't forget +svn or you will have to uninstall git-core and reinstall it)

You are ready to use git svn command. git-svn does not work but git svn does: that's because git-svn is not in your PATH. If you want to make git-svn work, add /opt/local/libexex/git-core to it (thanks Randall for the tip).

From there, have a look at http://viget.com/extend/effectively-using-git-with-subversion for a quick tutorial.
