Yes I think so, it's for this reason I don't like this option.

I have already played with git and I like it: it's really simple to
setup and clone over multiple users.

The only thing I miss is how to use it on common-lisp.net over ssh:

I'd like to keep the timeline trac done on the svn and I want to have
a code broswer as the one on trac.

I'll have a look at the git svn and use it instead of svn directly if
it fits my needs.

Ok, thanks a lot, I'll have a look at this.
