Hi there,

I´m trying to migrate a repository from svn to git which branches and tags with the following migration script:

git svn clone --no-metadata --stdlayout --A ../users.txt svn://host/svn/project/subproject subproject

cd subproject
git config svn.authorsfile ../../users.txt
git svn fetch

git checkout -b branch1 remotes/branch1
git checkout -b branch2 remotes/branch2
git checkout -b branch3 remotes/branch3

git checkout -b src_v1 remotes/tags/src
git checkout master
git tag src src_v1
git branch -D src_v1

git checkout -b WebContent_v1 remotes/tags/WebContent
git checkout master
git tag WebContent WebContent_v1
git branch -D WebContent_v1

and get the follwoing errors:

W: Ignoring error from SVN, path probably does not exist: (160013): Filesystem has no item: Datei nicht gefunden: Revision 8966, Pfad »subproject« W: Do not be alarmed at the above message git-svn is just searching aggressively for old history.
This may take a while on large repositories

How do I solve this problem?
