After adding the svn-remote section, you'll want to copy
.git/refs/remotes/origin/master to .git/refs/remotes/git-svn.  After
doing that, "git svn fetch" should see that you have all the needed
commits and do a quick rebuild of its metadata.

I've not done it, but it should be possible.  You would create the new
svn repository with a single empty commit (as empty as SVN would allow).
Import that revision into your git repository with git-svn.  Then you
would either rebase or use grafts to make all of your git commits a
descendent of that single svn commit.  In that way, the next time you
run "git svn dcommit" it will see all your local git commits as new
commits to send to subversion.

No guarantees though, as I've not tried it.
