Svn2git: question about --branches

Svn2git: question about --branches

[nolan.ring]

Hi,

Our svn directory structure at the top level is:

trunk
branches
REbranches
tags

Branches is developer branches; REbranches is release engineering branches.  Is there any way to specify both using --branches?  If not, what's the best way to convert both of them?

Thanks much for your help.

Yep... just use --branches twice. The documentation for these options
even mentions that you can do that, actually. Just saying. :)

Thanks for your response.  I'm sorry that I missed it in the documentation.

I'm trying using --branches twice but the init command that the -v option returns would seem to indicate that "--branches branches" isn't being picked up.

pocadmin@usd-ubuntu-poc:~/pocc4core$ svn2git -v --trunk sspg --branches branches --branches REbranches --tags tags http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core/c4
Running command: git svn init --no-metadata --trunk=sspg --tags=tags --branches=REbranches http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core/c4
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/pocadmin/pocc4core/.git/
Using higher level of URL: http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core/c4 => http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core
Running command: git svn fetch

The conversion completed overnight and only REbranches was converted.  Nothing under branches was converted.  Assuming my syntax is correct is there anything else that's obviously wrong?

Thanks again.
