Following up to myself:

In case you are using git-svn please change into the directory of your
git-svn clone, open the file
     .git/config
and find the section named
     [svn-remote "svn"]
in there. In the "url=" line of that section please change the
"incubator/ooo" part of the URL to "openoffice".

If you are running into problems with this simple approach please use the extended instructions for the "General Case" at
    https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitSvnSwitch

For some reason this does not work for me.  I get a

Invalid filesystem path syntax: Cannot replace a directory from within at /usr/lib/git-core/git-svn line 5653

after changing
    url = https://a...@svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ooo/trunk
to
    url = https://a...@svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/trunk

in .git/config

Does anybody has step by step instructions on how to switch a local git repository.

It would be even more important to have a detailed description of setting up a new local git repository. I understand that that has become more complicated as well, if you want to access the "old" history. I really don't want to go back to use svn directly.
