Who has access/is running the script to mirror the svn on git.openwrt.org ?
I would like to know the exact commands used to update the git mirror

Here is an exemple of what we can have (I don't want to migrate to github,
i'm using it out of simplicity)
for now svn tags are git branches
https://github.com/champtar/openwrt-full

to do that i've added to my .git/config (after step 4)

> [remote "champtar"]
>         url = git at github.com:champtar/openwrt-full.git
>         fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/champtar/*
>         push = refs/remotes/svn/*:refs/heads/*
>

and pushed with:
git push --mirror champtar
