First, make sure you aren't using the --no-metadata flag. git svn rebase needs that metadata to rebuild its index. Second, a simple "git clone" will not set up the svn remotes; you have to do that by hand. This is what I do when I clone my svn mirror: mkdir project cd project git init git remote add origin git://mirror/project git config --add remote.origin.fetch +refs/remotes/*:refs/remotes/* git fetch git svn init -Ttrunk svn://upstream/project git config --add svn-remote.svn.fetch branches/foo:refs/remotes/foo git config --add svn-remote.svn.fetch branches/bar:refs/remotes/bar git reset --hard trunk git svn rebase Once you have it nailed down, you can put it into a script so all your co-workers don't have to do that by hand too. (Also, I quickly reset my cron job to run every five minutes; I found an hour was way too long for my taste. YMMV, of course) Peter Harris -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
