Using Tortoise SVN to commit to your git repo?! HERESEY!!! It'll even handle branches, and everything maps on to git seamlessly using SVN

Awesome. Git has a major drawback - the lack of noob friendly GUIs.

I use SmartGit, it is basically as easy to use as SmartSVN.

It does, but that doesn't mean you need to use git to use git.

Your perfectly fine using any SVN client you want with github
