"Someone else does a commit to the svn repository of a change to README.txt"
Is the above commit properly rebased into your local repository before you do the upci? Also, try again to do the manual git update-ref and git svn dcommit instead of using the "upci" alias. Could be that there is something wrong in the alias again. If you look in gitk, you should see that your local branch is a bit ahead of the remotes/origin/branchname. After doing the update-ref, the remotes/origin/branchname should be moved to the last commit that came from the bare repo (i.e. the last svn commit). The reason we have to do this is that when we pull in changes from our git-svn mirror, we don't automatically update our local git-svn pointer to the latest commit that came from SVN. This is why we have to do the update-ref step (or "upci") before we dcommit. I suspect that in your setup, something is going wrong in this step. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
