Gitlab is not git, and if you're having trouble there, I suspect you'll have problems educating personnel and encouraging good workflow with Subversion as well. I've had good success with migrations from Subversion to github. I've not seen anyone try the reverse. If you have to do this, the "git svn" command should be useful to permit you to import from a git repository and export to a Subversion repository. It won't bring the access control or support complex desired layouts of branches, tags, releases, and partial repos that Subversion may support more easily.
