Hi, there's also another point where git-svn doesn't honour GIT_ASKPASS: >From 632c264d0de127c35fbe45866ed81e832f357d56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Strickroth <email@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2011 12:01:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] honour GIT_ASKPASS for querying further actions on unknown certificates git-svn reads user answers from an interactive terminal. This behavior cause GUIs to hang waiting for git-svn to complete.
