I've found a work-around. I'm surprised it works, but it evidently does, so... If you do the `git svn init` without the `-T` argument, then set up the branches to fetch explicitly using `git config`, everything seems to work fine: $ git svn init svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/squirrelmail/code Initialized empty Git repository in /home/add/tmp/.git/ $ git config svn-remote.svn.fetch trunk:refs/remotes/origin/trunk $ git svn fetch r1 = 12dc820c417dc5f12723307a3fcfa4629ea972fb (refs/remotes/origin/trunk) A squirrelmail/ATHORS A squirrelmail/login.php3 A squirrelmail/signout.php3 ...
