And I haven't yet had a chance to verify the result. The reason is that whereas the command: $ git svn init file:///home/mtk/man-pages-rep/ -t tags -T trunk -b branches takes about half an hour to run, the other command (which I already started yesterday) seems to be taking (far) more than a day! Therefore, so far, I have not had a chance to run the command to completion to see if it gives the desired result. The greatly increased tun time also made me suspicious about whether the command was going to do the right thing. And, I end up with a lot of strange looking tags in the (as yet incompletely) imported tree: $ git branch -a tags/man-pages-2.00 tags/man-pages-2.00@117 tags/man-pages-2.01 tags/man-pages-2.01@145 tags/man-pages-2.02 tags/man-pages-2.02@184 tags/man-pages-2.03 tags/man-pages-2.03@232 tags/man-pages-2.04 tags/man-pages-2.04@283 What are the @nnn tags about? By tomorrow, probably the command will complete and I can see whether it produces the desired result. But why does it take so much longer to run this version of the command?
