Hello, Here is a simple testcase illustrating a conversion problem between subversion and git. git-svn handles it fine, but git-svnimport keeps stuff in the checkout that shouldn't be there. # git --version => git version 1.5.3.2.99.ge4b2 # svn --version | head -n 1 => svn, version 1.4.3 (r23084) mkdir test-svn cd test-svn svnadmin create svn-repo svn co file://$PWD/svn-repo svn-check-out cd svn-check-out mkdir trunk branches tags svn add * svn ci -m 'SVN dirs' cd trunk mkdir -p a/b/c/d echo A > a/A echo B > a/b/B echo C > a/b/c/C echo D > a/b/c/d/D svn add a svn ci -m 'Add some data' svn mv a/b . svn rm b/c svn ci -m 'Some shuffling around' ls -R cd ../.. mkdir git-repo cd git-repo git-svnimport file://$PWD/../svn-repo ls -R After the subversion manipulations, the svn checkout only contains the directories a/ b/ with their respective files A and B. The checkout from git-svnimport contains these elements, but also the full c/ directory in b/. Hope the testcase is clear enough ;-) -- Guillaume - 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
