Unfortunately this svn repository contains a malformed commit: There's an empty file with svn-property svn:special *. It was created using a windows client. If you try to checkout this revision using svn on linux you get an error. But using svn you have the possibility to checkout the next revision which corrects the content of the file to "link foo/bar". So the symlink is added to the working copy. But with git svn I get an error when running git svn rebase. Is there any way to skip this revision when running git svn rebase? Thanks, Martin
