svn:keywords can't be ignored in Subversion (at least I don't know of
a way to ignore them).

Renamed and copied directories are not detected by git and hence not
tracked when committing to SVN. I do not plan on adding support for
this as it's quite difficult and time-consuming to get working for all
the possible corner cases (git doesn't do it, either). Renamed and
copied files are fully supported if they're similar enough for git to
detect them.
