Just a small note you might want to add: If you were on a fresh system and following along the ubuntu build instructions:

http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Doc/Building_Blender/Linux/Ubuntu/CMake

then git svn <url> command will fail with errors about svn not being a valid git command. You still have to install subversion for git svn to work. On a fresh system, you might not even have git so...

sudo apt-get update
//still need svn installed on the system sudo apt-get install subversion build-essential
sudo apt-get git git-core git-svn
//help also creates an empty ~/.subversion dir and config files on first call
svn help

//you can check that ~/.subversion/ was created with servers, conf, etc.

Problems: I get errors running make from the blender/ folder
