That looked just like a mirror, and the wiki seemed to lack info on how
to turn that into a git-svn clone?

I do not agree completely. If we are going to switch (and personally I
think we should), you/we need to get more feel for how to use git.
And even if some lyx devvies already use git, I think all (or close to)
should try it out. And I think when we try it out we should try to get
the best possible experience out of it.
(And imo that means an officialy set up git repo that is created for
this purpose in the way we imagine it would be done if we really made
the switch (proper svn.authorsfile f.ex.))

I'd like you to name some... I only know of a few and as of current they
seem to be of very little importance. I belive the benefit of not having
to handle the daily (or yearly) churn of chores is a really good thing.
