Welcome to the road to heaven^H^H^H^H^H^Hgit ;-) Yeah, I'm aware of the above limitations. I've been using git-svn for all of my OpenWrt checkouts for a few years now. The rebase/cherry-pick can be easily automated with a script, and the authorship can be annotated in the commit messages. I don't think either of those limitations is problematic at all.
