Thank you for replying again so soon :-) I tried using the exact command that you gave me earlier, but got the identical error: git: 'svn' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'.

It refuses to recognise "git svn" as a valid command, and "svn" does not appear in the list of commands when I type, "svn --help" in Git Bash (I am using Git in Windows, if that makes any difference). I tried to look for svn2git, but the homepage linked from the link that you gave me produced a 404. > > Also, once I have managed to create a Git clone of the SVN repository myself, how do I synchronise that properly with the branch of the other mirror of the SVN repository that I have been using as the trunk so far, such that I can continue to download updates and have [i]just[/i] the changes since the previous versions applied? > > > On Sat, Mar 28, 2009 at 11:06, jamespetts <jamespetts@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> >> Thank you very much for your reply :-) Ahh, I didn't realise that that sort of SVN URL should be avoided. Is there any way around that when the project itself uses that sort of URL? And I think that it does require a username and empty password.
