I've had errors like this.  For certain repositories (possibly very old ones) 
there is an unusual, empty, revision 0.  I got around the problem by telling 
git-svn to start at revision 1.  Everything seemed fine after that.

$ git-svn fetch -r1

I don't know if that will be your fix, but it's worth a try.
