Re: Multiple SVN remote branches listed in "git branch -r" after "git-svn fetch"

By the way, I figured this out if you ever run into the same thing.
When you fetch any SVN branches or tags that have ever been
moved/renamed, Git will create these other tags and branches with '@'
signs in them.

For example, these two branches:
  4.x/v4_0
  4.x/v4_0@8459
mean that in r8460 the 4.0 branch was moved to a different location or
renamed. Good news is that the base branch "4.x/v4_0" contains the
revision history of both: everything before and after the move -- so
it's the only one that matters when converting to git branches.

Just an FYI.
