Since upgrading from 1.6.5.2 to 1.7.0 I've noticed a change in how git svn fetches from the Subversion repository on tags. Of course, for the repo I'm working with there are many more tags then branches. 1.6.5.2 gives me the following on a tag: r333 = b15f3f20710a1e282fb6ff62c13fad64376ad2b4 (refs/remotes/trunk) Found possible branch point:http://bt011us013s/prod_repos/trunk =>http://bt011us013s/prod_repos/tags/3.09.1255, 333 Found branch parent: (refs/remotes/tags/3.09.1255) b15f3f20710a1e282fb6ff62c13fad64376ad2b4 Following parent with do_switch Successfully followed parent r334 = 77d132d69bc333e7c988a4f3af9d48a98dadf0d4 (refs/remotes/tags/3.09.1255) With 1.7.0: r333 = b15f3f20710a1e282fb6ff62c13fad64376ad2b4 (refs/remotes/trunk) A Enterprise/Header.txt .... r334 = 2c0e6dd89e81e7d18288e135f40f193b2ff22018 (refs/remotes/tags/3.09.1255) The SHA1s are also different. It would be nice if the entire branch wasn't fetched.
