Also, there is no problem with using SVN 1.5 (I tried 1.5.1) as long as you use FS format 2 (I tested git-svn with libsvn-perl 1.4.2 and 1.5.1 works fine) but if your repository is initialized to use FS format 3 (which is the default in SVN 1.5) then this problem happens with all versions of SVN perl binding, and it happens exactly in the same place: /home/dpotapov/git/git-svn:3333: my @ce = $opts->{ra}->get_commit_editor($opts->{log}, sub get_commit_editor { /home/dpotapov/git/git-svn:3909: my ($self, $log, $cb, $pool) = @_; /home/dpotapov/git/git-svn:3910: my @lock = $SVN::Core::VERSION ge '1.2.0' ? (undef, 0) : (); /home/dpotapov/git/git-svn:3911: $self->SUPER::get_commit_editor($log, $cb, @lock, $pool); sub AUTOLOAD { /usr/lib/perl5/SVN/Ra.pm:74: my $class = ref($_[0]); /usr/lib/perl5/SVN/Ra.pm:75: my $method = $AUTOLOAD; /usr/lib/perl5/SVN/Ra.pm:76: $method =~ s/.*:://; /usr/lib/perl5/SVN/Ra.pm:77: return unless $method =~ m/[^A-Z]/; /usr/lib/perl5/SVN/Ra.pm:79: my $self = shift; /usr/lib/perl5/SVN/Ra.pm:82: my $func = $self->{session}->can ($method) /usr/lib/perl5/SVN/Ra.pm:85: my @ret = $func->($self->{session}, @_); Numbers of lines may be different for different versions of libsvn-perl, but the effect is exactly the same. Instead of going to the next line and completing AUTOLOAD, if you use FS format 3 then you end up in croak_on_error(), which uses some uninitialized value in string concatenation (which produces an additional warning) and then calls croak().
