Welcome to the brotherhood. Haha. Ow.

Using SVN was like a having a thoughtful professional assistant who ignored half of what I said and occasionally threw medium sized objects at my head without warning.

You're allowed to mock the whole organization mercilessly until they upgrade to git. Git is completely free, and the available upgrade tools are lossless. Also git actually works perfectly fine when naively treated like SVN.

Source: I used git naively like SVN for awhile after (flawlessly) upgrading a huge number of repositories.
