IB> When creating a tag or branch from a subdir, a disjoint branch IB> is created. Then git-svn re-imports the commits using this dir as IB> strip path. IB> Why? I would instead keep the current commit as parent, delete IB> everything except the subdir and move its contents to root directory. Even worse, git-svn does doble work, failing to find the parent branch: The revision is imported 3 times (2 times creating the same SHA) r8803 = 7bfe8f8d950edd645c6f15193e639953c0b936ac (refs/remotes/trunk) Found possible branch point: file:///home/il/builds/sicap/gitsvn/prd_dmc4.svn/trunk/GUI => file:///home/il/builds/sicap/gitsvn/prd_dmc4.svn/tags/GUI_4.0.25, 8803 Initializing parent: refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.25@8803 r6 = de89d3fd4dff9c44f1c79a316364196d0c81c9f6 (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.25@8803) ... r8803 = ffc46ad0e967636f2000d354481c0419a4c6cec4 (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.25@8803) Found branch parent: (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.25) ffc46ad0e967636f2000d354481c0419a4c6cec4 Following parent with do_switch Successfully followed parent r8804 = 2cbe962f0fb58c3f2d236ca918941e353da45af4 (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.25) ... r8923 = ad38e54ca9bb6b26654571bb14d17301484437dc (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.26) r8924 = e1932e8fdeab291f54ed06064da3ae7eb1e3eddb (refs/remotes/trunk) Found possible branch point: file:///home/il/builds/sicap/gitsvn/prd_dmc4.svn/trunk/GUI => file:///home/il/builds/sicap/gitsvn/prd_dmc4.svn/tags/GUI_4.0.26, 8925 Initializing parent: refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.26@8925 r6 = de89d3fd4dff9c44f1c79a316364196d0c81c9f6 (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.26@8925) ... r8803 = ffc46ad0e967636f2000d354481c0419a4c6cec4 (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.26@8925) r8805 = dac5886451f64e63d70b307bcc6f0c8ccf9c9882 (refs/remotes/tags/GUI_4.0.26@8925) ... -- 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
