[ESS] public git mirror?

Not that I know of.  However, I have been using git locally on my
machine, using:

    git svn clone https://svn.r-project.org/ESS/trunk/ (to create)
    git svn rebase   (to update)

which allows me to edit and then transparently commit changes back to
svn.  If you just want to track svn development, can you use the git-svn
interface?

On the other hand, how much interest is there in a git mirror of SVN?
