2. Is there a way to add a new svn branch like that (say production
or some_branch) to an existing git-svn repository that has trunk
cloned?

I don't know, but that'd be great indeed.


You can simply add "fetch" lines to the relevant "svn-remote" section
in .git/config.

I did try to add a "fetch" line for the production branch like this:

[svn-remote "svn"]
         url = svn+ssh://host/svn/project
         fetch = production:refs/remotes/svn-prod
         fetch = trunk:refs/remotes/git-svn

which is modeled after http://lists-archives.org/git/420712-git-svn-
remote-tracking-branch-question.html

But when I try to checkout the production branch like this:

git checkout -b prod remotes/svn-prod

I got this:
git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches/
forcing
Did you intend to checkout 'remotes/svn-prod' which can not be
resolved as commit?

Did you forget to run 'git svn fetch' after modifying your .git/ config?

Yes, I did. It didn't seem to do anything. $? is 0. the master/trunk is up-to-date but the production branch has never been fetched. If this is supposed to work, the fetch might be triggered upon next update in trunk?
