It's still valid on Mac OS X Lion. Here's what I had to do in order to convert an existing svn repository into git: <code> sudo port install subversion-perlbindings sudo port install git-core +svn sudo gem install svn2git </code> (assuming macports is installed) Then I was able to run svn2git to do all the magic.

I'll have to give this a shot as I'm not quite a GIT expert yet. Can't wait to see your presentation at MoR. Looks like a lot of people are as anxious as me from what I hear on the street.

It seems to require more effort than it's worth: http://wincent.com/knowledge-base/Setting_up_the_Git_documentation_build_chain_on_Mac_OS_X_Leopard @Dan: I have a coworker getting the same error on Tiger. I think it's related to a prior installation of perl with macports. Unfortunately, I don't know how to fix it yet. @ Carl: I personally did not install the man pages.
