I've set up a git mirror of the svn repo, this is updated whenever a
commit is made:
git://git.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i.git
Total size of a checkout of all of d-i's history is about 400 mb.
The git-svn run to create this took 2+ days on a 2.3 ghz Xeon.
This looks basically nothing like real switch of the repo from svn to
git would look[1]. It may still be useful if you want to take d-i's
history with you on a plane, or keep unreleased branches in git for
easier merging, or whatever. It's probably possible to set up git-svn to
push changes back into the d-i svn repo too.

[1] Obvious problems include it not being split into submodules,
the branches and tags being a total mess (and not exported by
default), and committer emails not being included.
