Lost svn server, restore from local copy (folder)?

the svn server was lost, but a copy of all the work was saved on the local PC, namely the .svn folder weighing about 500 mb, it has a history of file changes, and the wc.db (sql) file in which there is addressing to a non-existing server ip , I set up my svn server based on the CollabNetSubversion server, but the question arose of how I can transfer all the data from the .svn folder to my local server so that I can pull out the last working commit, or see through the gui what changes were in the files. If it is possible to transfer everything to git, it would also not be bad, I did not find it in Google

As far as I remember, SVN is not a distributed system. That is, in the .svn folder there is only part of the data necessary for the server to work (what the client uses so as not to climb every time to the server)
It seems to me that it’s easier to score on the .svn folder and use the sources as a starting point for git. In the case of git, even the loss of the central server will not lead to disaster - you can recover from any local repository.
