Hmm, not sure I understood.  Here's what I tried:

I'm tracking two branches via git-svn.  For each, I used git log
remotes/<branch> to find a revision that I expect to be ok and noted
the sha1.  Then I did: 

    git-update-ref remotes/git-svn a27b11c1

and similar, but with different sha1 for the other branch.  Next I
removed the .rev_db* files (there was one for each svn branch) and
tried doing git-svn fetch.  This seemed to rebuild the .rev_db, but
eventually I ended up with:

Done rebuilding .git/svn/git-svn/.rev_db.00db46b3-68df-0310-9c12-caf00c1e9a41
        M       src/<somepath>
        M       src/<another>
Incomplete data: Delta source ended unexpectedly at /Users/seth/scm/bin/git-svn line 2982

And if I rerun git svn fetch, I get:

Index mismatch: 9c07a6009029e4a1d834ff126f705c4db3c4bce7 != 67dc53678f759c52a93a281f13fadb08799f86b2

        M       src/<another>
Incomplete data: Delta source ended unexpectedly at /Users/seth/scm/bin/git-svn line 2982


[where <somepath> and <another> are the same in both cases]

Did I miss a step or misunderstand how to undo?  What's strange is
that if I do git show 0f12c8c, I see a patch that is looks like it came
from a fetch using the my broken version of git-svn -- do I need to
clear out objects before refetching?

Thanks,

+ seth
