Has anyone used git-svn with the pydotorg repository? I'm having a bit of trouble cloning the repository (aka checking it out); am hoping I don't have to hunt down a Windows svn client.
$ git svn clone -s svn+ssh://pydot...@svn.python.org/trunk/beta.python.org pywww Initialized empty Git repository in c:/pywww/.git/ Using higher level of URL: svn+ssh://pydot...@svn.python.org/trunk/beta.python.org => svn+ssh://pydot...@svn.python.org W: Ignoring error from SVN, path probably does not exist: (160013): Filesystem has no item: File not found: revision 100, path '/trunk/beta.python.org' W: Do not be alarmed at the above message git-svn is just searching aggressively for old history. This may take a while on large repositories Checked through r8600 At this point it stalled for a long time (not sure how long, but long enough that I was wondering if it had died completely - probably ten minutes or more). Then after a while it silently gave me back a prompt. However, the new pywww directory has about 25KB in it, which is not nearly enough for even current status, much less history. $ git status # On branch master # # Initial commit # nothing to commit (create/copy files and use "git add" to track) $ git log fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD' Have I done something hopelessly wrong? If nobody knows what's going on, I'll switch to a "real" Subversion client, but it would be more convenient to work this way. I'm currently re-cloning the repository without the -s (standard setup) option, to see if that makes any difference.
