Hmm, that's a mistake - svn should continue to work (read only). I'll check with the osuosl.org guys. We don't have any links with the correspondence between svn and git revisions, but I still have my git-svn tree, so if you give me the svn rev, then I'll look up the corresponding git revision. You can checkout older git revisions with git checkout . Normally you can also use the date based syntax (see man git-rev-parse) like: git show @{2009-05-01}, but the commit dates are not correct for the pre-git commits. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
