Migrate from Subversion to git, clone all branches and push through gitolite?

I've been working on moving our 9 projects in one SVN repo over to 9 separate git repos, managed on a server by gitolite then shutting down SVN. Seven of them were easy as they had no branches or tags so on my workstation I was able to do a simple:

git svn clone --stdlayout --no-metadata -A svnauthors.txt svn+ssh://user@host/var/subversion/project tempProject

Then pushed from my workstation to the gitolite sever via:

 git remote add origin ssh://gitolite@host/project
 git push -u origin master

and they have all been working great. Now the final two projects are more difficult, having about 30 tags/branches each. After running the 'git svn clone' as above on one of those projects I see:

$ git branch -a
* master
  remotes/BatchUpload
  remotes/clarify_breadcrumb
  remotes/contact_type
  remotes/contact_upload_improvements
  remotes/file_cabinet
  remotes/mobile
  remotes/summary_tiles
  remotes/summary_updates
  remotes/tags/release-2.1.2
  remotes/tags/release-3.0.1
  remotes/tags/release-3.0.2
  remotes/tags/release-3.0.2c
  remotes/tags/release-3.1.1
  remotes/tags/release-3.1.3
  remotes/tags/release-3.1.4
  remotes/tags/release-3.1.5
  remotes/tags/release-3.1.5.UPDT
  remotes/tags/release-3.2
  remotes/tags/release-3.2.1
  remotes/tags/release-3.2.2.1
  remotes/tags/release-3.2.3
  remotes/tags/release-3.2.4
  remotes/tags/release-3.2.6
  remotes/tags/release-3.2.7
  remotes/tags/release-3.2.7.1
  remotes/trunk
  remotes/user_man_batch_upload
  remotes/user_management

Now how do I go about getting all those tags/branches downloaded to my local workstation so I can push them through gitolite and shutdown the SVN server permanently? Is what I need to do in this guide, doing a 'git checkout -b' for each branch and tag? Should I be using svn2git or some other tool for this?

Solution

A helpful person in #git on freenode irc wrote me a little command to get my tags and branches copied over to Git from SVN:

Push branches:

printf "git push origin "; git show-ref | grep refs/remotes | grep -v '@' | grep -v remotes/tags | perl -ne 'print "refs/remotes/$1:refs/heads/$1 " if m!refs/remotes/(.*)!'; echo

This outputs a command, which can be run to push all branches.

Push tags:

printf "git push origin "; git show-ref | grep refs/remotes/tags | grep -v '@' | perl -ne 'print "refs/remotes/tags/$1:refs/tags/$1 " if m!refs/remotes/tags/(.*)!'; echo

This likewise outputs a command, which can be run to push all tags.
