fatal: unable to run 'git-svn'

fatal: unable to run 'git-svn'

[Jean-Marie Gaillourdet]

Hi,

I am not sure whether this is right place to post such question. 

I've been using git svn with different svn repositories for some time now. 
But I have one  repository with which a git svn clone always fails at the 
same revision. There  is no problem when using svn checkout on that 
repository. I do the following:

$ git svn clone https://....some_pivate_server:2443/svn/Foo/trunk/bar/

...
several hundered revisions are imported
...
r896 = 6a91d0d15864c174fe8d001e03c579d1968ab926 (git-svn)
	A	Uebungen/uebung08/README
r897 = c2d0e0f317b54575598c8d3067f26a558b202745 (git-svn)
fatal: unable to run 'git-svn'
$

This is on OX 10.5.6 with
$svn --version
svn, version 1.6.1 (r37116)
   compiled Apr 13 2009, 18:48:29

The following repository access (RA) modules are available:

* ra_neon : Module for accessing a repository via WebDAV protocol using Neon.
  - handles 'http' scheme
  - handles 'https' scheme
* ra_svn : Module for accessing a repository using the svn network protocol.
  - with Cyrus SASL authentication

  - handles 'http' scheme
  - handles 'https' scheme

$git --version
git version 1.6.2.2

I tried raising limits for the number of open files and user processes. But 
that did not change anything, it still fails at the same revision. Any 
pointer where to search  for the reason would be great.

Please CC to me any answer since I am not registered with this mailinglist.

Best regards,

Sounds similar to

but it is all what I know about it...
