Hi,

when doing a `git svn clone' on a subversion repository that contains
a large file (>1GiB), `git svn' dies with the following:

ams@trillian:~$ git svn clone REPO -T trunk -b branches -t tags
[...]
fatal: Out of memory? mmap failed: Cannot allocate memory
hash-object -w --stdin-paths: command returned error: 128

error closing pipe: Bad file descriptor at /usr/local/bin/libexec/git-core//git-svn line 0
error closing pipe: Bad file descriptor at /usr/local/bin/libexec/git-core//git-svn line 0

Doing a `git repack' doesn't help either.  Anyone got a clue how to
either solve, or work around this?

git version 1.6.1.3

Cheers.
