`git help svn` does not mention `propset` but it does mention `proplist` and `propget`. This seems like an oversight. $ git help svn ... proplist Lists the properties stored in the Subversion repository about a given file or directory. Use -r/--revision to refer to a specific Subversion revision. propget Gets the Subversion property given as the first argument, for a file. A specific revision can be specified with -r/--revision. ... Interestingly, the generic `git svn` help does mention `propset`. $ git svn ... propget Print the value of a property on a file or directory --revision, -r <num> proplist List all properties of a file or directory --revision, -r <num> propset Set the value of a property on a file or directory - will be set on commit ... It seems Documentation/git-svn.txt is missing text for `propset`. - Joe-- 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
