My company has a fairly large SVN repository, and I'm running into a 
bug with git-svn where some revisions aren't being fetched.

        The repository has a standard trunk/tags/branches layout, but there are 
some top-level directories under trunk/ that clearly don't belong in Git, and 
some that do.  So, I've been experimenting with two approaches: a single 
git-svn clone that uses 'ignore-paths' to exclude the stuff that I don't want; 
and a series of per-subdir clones that use "fetch = 
trunk/<subdir>:refs/remotes/trunk" to pull in only that subdir.

        The problem is that the 'ignore-paths' approach sometimes misses 
commits during a fetch, and then at some later time will "realize" it and 
squash those changes onto some other, unrelated commit.  (I've never seen this 
happen with the per-subdir 'fetch' approach.)  Here are three commits in SVN:

$ svn log -v -r 172602 -r 172605 -r 172626 svn://dev

        The first two are not to be found in git: 'git log --all --grep 
17260[25]' returns nothing.  However, the third commit is there, and has had 
the changes from the earlier two (and some others) squashed into it somehow:

$ git log --grep 172626 --numstat --summary
