Background

md C:\relax
cd C:\relax
git svn clone svn://svn.gna.org/svn/relax/trunk/

This takes a clone of the repository at that revision; to update it to HEAD, you now need to rebase, which is very similar to: svn up

git svn rebase

git branch -a

-* -r is for the revision to start taking history from. If you want to include all of the history, just leave that option off, but it will take a very long time, and you really don't need all of it. The older a revision you choose, the longer it will take to import. But you will not be able to "git blame" past the earliest revision you import. Choose wisely.
