I managed to get git-svn fetch to work by specifying an author file with -A. I'm a bit confused about why I have to do this. Is there a way around this? Or perhaps a way to force a bogus email address based on svn user name? [ok, maybe I'm less confused than I'm letting on: the email requirement is, I think, because that's what suits the main git "customers". If I was using git for a project's primary SCM, I would have no problem with this. In fact, we started using email addresses as user names in svn a long time ago. But it seems to me that (1) using git to track a project that uses a less featureful SCM is way cool, and (2) having to manually muck with an authors file is kinda uncool.] > Sorry about so long to reply to questions this week, left hand/wrist is > wrecked.
