Hello,
I'm trying to follow example 3 of the git-svn manpage, since I'd like to
keep a "central" clone of a subversion repository (and rebase it
regularly) on a server and work on local git repositories based on that
server's git repository.
However, I can't get this example to work:
# Do the initial import on a server
ssh server "cd /pub && git-svn clone http://svn.foo.org/project
# Clone locally - make sure the refs/remotes/ space matches the server
mkdir project
cd project
git-init
git remote add origin server:/pub/project
git config --add remote.origin.fetch=+refs/remotes/*:refs/remotes/*
git fetch
# Initialize git-svn locally
git-svn init http://svn.foo.org/project
# Pull the latest changes from Subversion
git-svn rebase
('--add' doesn't work in git config, but I guess that's not required).
I get this error:
$ git-svn rebase
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the
working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
log --no-color HEAD: command returned error: 128
I've then tried:
$ git checkout origin/master
warning: You appear to be on a branch yet to be born.
[...]
$ git branch master
$ git checkout master
$ git-svn rebase
However, this produces this error:
'Unable to determine upstream SVN information from working tree history'
Any idea how to solve this?
Best wishes,
Bruno.
