I see, I figured git-svn could work around that. So I should do a git svn set-tree -i trunk remotes/trunk..svn and then git svn rebase? That makes the git history hard to follow. hmm, is it wise to mix set-tree and dcommit in one repo? Is there a way to tell set-tree to commit the whole "merge" branch as one svn commit? If I merge the latest kernel into my tree there will be a lot of commits that I don't want in svn.
