See git://git.tokkee.org/rrdtool.git. This repo was created using the
following git-svn command line (and is sync'ed each hour):

  git svn clone -Ttrunk/program -ttags -bbranches/*/program \
  svn://svn.oetiker.ch/rrdtool

It does not import the SVN tags as Git tags, though. Afaik, this feature
is not available (yet?), since SVN tags are more like SVN "branches".
I'm thinking about writing a small script to take care of that, though.

A side-note for those who were already using that repo: Previously, this
repo included the entire rrdtool repo as well (i.e., the top level
directory of "trunk"). The old repo has now been moved to
rrdtool-all.git.

HTH,
Sebastian
