In fact my clone was larger than it should be, because it had old
leftover objects from earlier iterations of the conversion. After
cleaning those up I see 1.5GB in .git, 2.2GB including the working
tree. My .svn directory has 1.7GB of data.

If you have only one working tree then Git's disk space requirements
should be "about the same." Each additional working tree tips the
scale increasingly in GIt's favour.

If disk space is a concern you can clone with the -depth=1 option,
which avoids fetching history. I tried that just now and have a .git
directory of about 250MB.
