UsingGitSvn

These instructions will set up your clone to pull from the TextMate Bundles repo directly with git-svn.

cd TextMate # this is your clone
git update-ref refs/remotes/git-svn `git rev-parse HEAD`
git svn init http://svn.textmate.org/trunk
git svn fetch

Now you should be able to update your repo with git svn rebase.

Note that this does not get you any of the branches, just the trunk. If you want the branches, either ask me to expose them, or fetch them directly with the following instructions:

cd TextMate
git update-ref refs/remotes/trunk `git rev-parse HEAD`
git svn init -s http://svn.textmate.org/trunk
git svn fetch

This will still take a while, though, as there’s a lot of data on the branches. This will be faster than fetching everything from svn directly, but it’s not a big difference.
