You can start configuring the repo with git init git svn init svn://server/ -T trunk to get an initial layout. The .git/config will look like [svn-remote "svn"] url = svn://server/ fetch = trunk:refs/remotes/trunk The clue is that the config says 'fetch', not 'trunk'. Much like with git remotes, you can add more fetch specs along the lines of fetch = branches/XXX:refs/remotes/svn/XXX or whatever layout you prefer. Please tell us whether that works even in the face of restrictions on branches/ itself :-) -- Thomas Rast trast@{inf,student}.ethz.ch -- 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
