Re: git export to svn

[Warren Harris <warrensomebody@gmail.com>]

I tried a fetch, but still no luck:

$ git svn fetch
W: Ignoring error from SVN, path probably does not exist: (175002): RA  
layer request failed: REPORT of '/svn/!svn/bc/100': Could not read  
chunk size: Secure connection truncated (https://svn)
W: Do not be alarmed at the above message git-svn is just searching  
aggressively for old history.
This may take a while on large repositories

	A	...
r58088 = 7916f3a02ad6c759985bd9fb886423c373a72125 (trunk)

$ git svn rebase
Unable to determine upstream SVN information from working tree history

$ git svn dcommit
Can't call method "full_url" on an undefined value at /opt/local/ 
libexec/git-core/git-svn line 425.


Looks like the only option is applying individual patches to preserve  
my history...
