See Manual:Configuring_file_uploads#Configuring_file_types and Manual:$wgFileExtensions. In short: Add
$wgFileExtensions[] = 'svg';
to LocalSettings.php.
You can add it by yourself :) Just register a developer access account:

But please explain in detail, what's the value of adding svg to defaultsettings :)
If you don't want to do that, you can enter a bug as feature request, too: Bugzilla
I guess it's not included in default settings because it requires a working convert program to generate rasterized versions on thumbnails, something that the default GD library can't handle.
Basically, if you enable SVG, you still require more configuration changes to have it working
Ok but if you upload an svg file would that mean you would have to have something that renders it so it is svg.
No, but it probably couldn't be embedded as an image, and would probably be just as any other document.
