The following notes provide details on the conversion of several repositories from subversion to git making use of two tools to help with the process:

gitolite which provides a framework to help managing a central git repository. From https://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite
svn2git to convert existing repositories from subversion to git. From: https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git
This is the second time I performed such conversions and it was a lot easier the second time around due to greater familiarity with git and the tools being used to perform the conversion. These notes should make it even easier the next time I need to do this.
