The subversion imported commits have the revision number at the end of
the description in the "git-svn-id" line. For example, you can create
and checkout a new branch with svn revision 10184 by doing the
following.

Find the commit hash from the git-svn-id.

  git log address@hidden

Create and checkout a new branch named r10184 from the commit hash.

  git checkout -b r10184 cd7b07f0140ddff6

That works for me, and I'm sure there are other ways as well. Hope that helps.
