p4 + svn + git

From: Benjamin Sergeant <hidden>

That might be too much, but let's ask anyway...

My company uses perforce.
I took a snapshot of some code checked out from perforce (a single
branch), that I imported into subversion, a while ago, and started
working with svn only. I have different Unix machines checking in /
out code code from the subversion server (with svn), and I'd like to
keep it this way (if possible).

I'm wondering if I could use git as a gateway between both systems, to
merge code in both direction (svn <-> perforce).

Is this possible, with the help of git-p4import, git-svn, and using
several branches ?

Thanks,
Benjamin.

This is probably too much, so on to the next question:
Is there a perforce equivalent of git-svn ?

What I'd like to do:
My main Linux machine will be the gateway.

1. I 'clone' the perforce tree with git-p4. I now have a .git, a full repo.
Can I use this as the equivalent of a subversion server, so that every
other machines pull / push from it.

And once in a while (weekly basis), I push the work that's been done
in git to perforce using the Linux box.

Doest that make sense ?

Thanks,
Benjamin.

Looks like this git-p4 is there:
