Export svn dump to git or github

I have a svn dump (but the actual svn website is no longer active). Is there a way to upload this dump to git or github? The tutorials that I see pertain to using svn-git and need access to the actual svn website.

svndump-to-git can be used as an alternative to reposurgeon in this case so long as the subversion dump is in version 2 format.

It is a whole repository converter with automatic branch detection.

1) You can extract the dump and convert it to git even without a server:

svnadmin create /home/user/svn/repo
svnadmin load /home/user/svn/repo < svndump.dat
git svn clone file:///home/user/svn/repo /home/user/svn/repo.git

2) reposurgeon can migrate svn dump directly, without extracting it.
