Hi, Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo reported on #git that a git-svn clone of this svn repo fails for him: https://sucs.org/~welshbyte/svn/backuptool/trunk I can reproduce that here with: git-svn version 1.6.0.2.541.g46dc1.dirty (svn 1.5.1) The error message I get is: Apache got a malformed URI: Unusable URI: it does not refer to this repository at /usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 4057 strace revealed that git-svn url-encodes ~ while svn does not do that. For svn we have: write(5, "<S:update-report send-all=\"true\" xmlns:S=\"svn:\"> <S:src-path>https://sucs.org/~welshbyte/svn/backuptool/trunk</S:src-path>... While git-svn shows: write(7, "<S:update-report send-all=\"true\" xmlns:S=\"svn:\"> <S:src-path>https://sucs.org/%7Ewelshbyte/svn/backuptool/trunk</S:src-path>...
