Hi there,
I'm trying to clone an existing svn repository with git (just getting
started with git) and it keeps failing with:
...
r604 = 6428e63734a21ee5fcb4593274747e2758578a91 (git-svn)
fatal: unable to run 'git-svn'
I'm using git version 1.6.2
Mac OS X 10.5.6. git installed via macports with svn support.
Any ideas? How do I find out why it's failing?
Thanks.
with regards,

Are you sure r604 isn't the latest svn revision?
I always get this error when doing "git svn fetch" with an http URL, it
doesn't occur with an svn URL. But everything seems to work fine,
though.

A few thousand out, yes.

Interesting. Yes, it's from an https url. I'll try svn+ssh://..
But are you saying there's no way to get more info about the error?
Thanks

At least I don't have more info about it except for this:
I use Gentoo Linux and the git ebuild (I have the distribution package
installed, but use the self-compiled git) says
"Per Gentoo bugs #223747, #238586, when subversion is built"
"with USE=dso, there may be weird crashes in git-svn. You"
"have been warned."
I have subversion compiled with dso (Enable runtime module search), it's
enabled per default. And since it worked, I didn't change it. But it
would be interesting to see, if this error has something to do with it.
Maybe I'll try it out.

It may well have been a network issue for me when I tried the other
day. It seemed to work fine now.

Hi,
Trying to clone an SVN repository I get:
fatal: ambiguous argument '907deda1c3ca2b42352e1ac2ce9f0dc57c177818^..db1341887792beec3ca68dc3196b40b231fdb545': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
