Thank Marc. You are right, it should be the latter case with url http://www.example.com/project/branches/test But "git svn clone" has already added these lines to .git/config [svn-remote "svn"] url = https://xxx.xxxx.com/svn/xxx fetch = trunk:refs/remotes/trunk branches = branches/*:refs/remotes/* tags = tags/*:refs/remotes/tags/* And it still can not fetch new branch.

The problem is that even though the branch is named 'test' it's a sibling to the 'branches' 'tags' and 'trunk' paths in the repository. For git-svn to pick up branches, you point it at the path *containing* the branch names. In the former case, to pick up project/test as the 'test' branch you'd have to point git-svn at the project directory, and that would cause it to also pick up project/tags, project/branches, and project/trunk as other branches (named 'tags', 'branches' and 'trunk'). > > However, in the latter (test/<branchname>) case, with 1.6.4, I *think* git-svn will pick up the new branches under test if you add a new 'branches' line to the svn-remote's section in your .git/config file. Something like > > branches = test/*:refs/remotes/* > > might let you see the new branches. The reason I can't be more certain is that if you've done a 'git svn fetch' since the branch was created then git-svn might not pick up the branch-creation commits later. Unfortunately I don't know git-svn well enough to say for certain. > > M. > > > Changsheng Jiang wrote: >> Hi list, >> >> I know how to clone a svn repository with all branches and tags at the >> initial step, but I find no answers of how to fetch a new svn branch >> after clone. >> >> For example, this >> >> git svn clone http://svn.example.com/project -T trunk -b branches -t tags >> >> will clone all branches. but that clone, the svn repository has a new >> branch test with url http://svn.example.com/project/test, how to clone >> it as the initial step? >> >> Thanks. >> >> Changsheng Jiang >> -- >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in >> the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
