The problem is not with GIT-SVN, it's with the GIT merge, more specifically with a simultaneous modify and move, which conflicts probably because it is detected as a modify and delete. > Could someone please be a little more friendly, I need advice on how to solve hundreds of git merge conflicts (eg. parallel move and modify, which should have been merged automatically). > > Thanks, > Lőrinc > Could you perhaps show us what commands you have tried, and what the conflicts look like?
