Hi git list,

Alex Riesen asked me to forward this to this list.

Yes, I'm on OS X 10.5.8.

I'm pulling from git://git.chromium.org/chromium.git. This worked fine
for the last month or so, I had the problem for the first time
yesterday evening.

$ git --version
git version 1.6.0.2

Sadly, I fixed the problem accidentally by running something like

  rm -rf .git/svn/
  git svn fetch; git merge trunk
  git merge refs/remotes/origin/trunk
  git checkout -f HEAD
  git pull

(if that looks like I don't know what I'm doing, you're right)

If it happens again, I'll post a dtrace to this list.

Nico
