Pull SVN trunk to a git branch

I sometime fork SVN repos in GIT. When the SVN repo is updated I would like to be able to easily merge SVN changes doing a git merge.

The ideal would be to be able to have the SVN repo trunk in a GIT branch so I can sync the SVN branch and then merge from it.

Is such a layout possible?

It is best using git-svn and git-svn dcommit to keep a Git Repo in sync with an svn repo.

Then you can start a Git branch on top of that imported SVN trunk in your Git repo, and benefit from merges after the dcommit (ie after importing SVN changes into the Git branch dedicated for reflecting SVN revisions).
