How about using git to do a temporary 'svn stash'?
If you have changes in your svn working copy that you cannot commit
just yet, but you want to check out an earlier revision for whatever
reason, the current only solution in svn to that is to have a second
working copy. But no longer!
$ cd path/to/svn/repo
$ git init && git add . && git commit -m "save svn state"
$ svn revert -R *
$ svn update -r 42
$ # do whatever you need to do here
$ git reset --hard && rm .git

Does that qualify? ;)
