Hi Baruch, I can reproduce this, and confirm the problem in git-svnimport. It seems though that git-svnimport will be obsoleted upstream eventually, the functionality has been superseded by git-svn. Please try 'git-svn clone' to import the svn repository, it should work just fine. Regards, Gerrit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
