 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
 'git-svn' is a simple conduit for changesets between Subversion and git.
-It is not to be confused with linkgit:git-svnimport[1], which is
-read-only.
+It provides a bidirectional flow of changes between a Subversion and a git
+respository.
 
-'git-svn' was originally designed for an individual developer who wants a
-bidirectional flow of changesets between a single branch in Subversion
-and an arbitrary number of branches in git.  Since its inception,
-'git-svn' has gained the ability to track multiple branches in a manner
-similar to 'git-svnimport'.
+'git-svn' can track a single Subversion branch simply by using a
+URL to the branch, follow branches laid out in the Subversion recommended
+method (trunk, branches, tags directories) with the --stdlayout option, or
+follow branches in any layout with the -T/-t/-b options (see options to
+'init' below, and also the 'clone' command).
 
-'git-svn' is especially useful when it comes to tracking repositories
-not organized in the way Subversion developers recommend (trunk,
-branches, tags directories).
+Once tracking a Subversion branch (with any of the above methods), the git
+repository can be updated from Subversion by the 'fetch' command and
+Subversion updated from git by the 'dcommit' command.
