Is email_templates.yml an empty file by any chance? If it's an empty file, can you try pulling the latest from git://git.bogomips.org/git-svn and see if that fixes at least this for you? There was a bug that slipped in recently with trying to handle empty files better to workaround a bug in SVN. > $ cd community_service/ > $ git svn fetch > > Found possible branch point: svn+ssh://.../community_service/trunk => > svn+ssh://.../community_service/branches/current_demo, 1118 > Found branch parent: (current_demo) ab725a6c32905b6d007fcd8fd4723058d9487706 > Index mismatch: e8075b5d0694a738392d84016922eca87db65dcd != > 44b21b4a4fa70455621da3ac159cdf42c8c59987 > rereading ab725a6c32905b6d007fcd8fd4723058d9487706 > Following parent with do_switch > Malformed network data: Malformed network data at > /usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 3288 The malformed network data error has not been consistently reproducible for me. I've seen it occasionally on overloaded servers, but it always goes away when I restarted git-svn or tried to reproduce it. I'm guessing it is FD mangling and/or refcount mismanagement in the SVN perl libraries (which don't seem to be able to handle multiple connections to a server well at all). -- Eric Wong -- 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
