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

Did you forget to run 'git svn fetch' after modifying your .git/
config?
Yes, I did. It didn't seem to do anything.
Hmm, it works for me, I've been adding and removing branches like
this
for months, but my .git/config is slightly different:
[svn-remote "svn"]
url = svn://example.org
fetch = project/trunk:refs/remotes/svn/trunk
fetch = project/branches/topic:refs/remotes/svn/topic
I don't know if this difference is important, though...
I tried to test this on a local repository like file:///path/
project. It seems to work and get everything properly upon git svn
fetch. However it doesn't work for the production branch. If I
modify the fetch line a bit to svn/prod instead of svn-prod and try
git svn fetch again. It would hang for about 2 minutes and return 0
and show nothing in progress. A .git/svn/svn/prod directory is
created but it's empty.
One thing that might be special for this branch is that it gets
deleted and recreated/copied all the time from trunk. I wonder if
git-svn use some kind of heuristics to determine if there is
anything to fetch and silently failing...
After some permutations, this is the config that worked for me:
[svn-remote "svn"]
url = svn+ssh://host/svn
fetch = project/trunk:refs/remotes/git-svn
fetch = project/production:refs/remotes/svn/production
The primary difference is that I moved 'project' from url to the
fetch specs. My original single trunk config looked like this:
[svn-remote "svn"]
url = svn+ssh://host/svn/project/trunk
fetch = :refs/remotes/git-svn
I wish that "git svn fetch" could be more verbose about what's going
on in this case.
