I should really provide more information:
I imported my Subversion repository in the past succesfully from my server
(svn+ssh protocol). Since I'm new to git (and still confused by the large
amount of git tools) I decided to start on a svnsync'ed copy of my repository
(file protocol) to avoid any harm. I added also some new config settings
including svn.authorsfile and fetching revisions started to fail. The last
output was:
r38 = 4dca32e3d82a32206fd11545d4f270e118f51f12 (trunk@166)
M myproject/file
Revision 39 contained the unknown user account so I suspected the error
is related to an incomplete authors file.
I used following versions of Subversion:
Client: 1.5.5
Server: 1.5.3
After adding the missing account to the authors file it fetched all revisions,
called the garbage collector and stilled crashed with a core dump. Last
output:
Checked out HEAD:
file:///home/jens/Subversion-Repository.synced/myproject/trunk r1700
Abgebrochen (core dumped)
This happened also after I removed the svn.authorsfile config setting.
My current settings:
[user]
name = Jens Seidel
email = jensseidel@xxxxxxxxxxxx
[color]
diff = auto
branch = auto
interactive = auto
[svn]
findcopiesharder = true
rmdir = true
"gdb -c core" is useless, it just mentions the error occured in
"perl git-svn fetch" and there is no stacktrace (don't know how to
debug perl).
I removed now both [svn] options and it failed again. So it seems a problem
with file:// access while svn+ssh:// works well.

Huch? I follow the Subversion developer list and I'm not not aware of
such a problem. Will try it now ...
PS: Compared to previous releases of git the import is at least 10 times
faster. Good job!
