Greetings,
Looking for help - I have some issues with git-svn as of git version
1.7.1.rc1.12.ga601 on Cygwin 1.7.5 w/ Windows 7 32-bit professional German, but
this has been going on for a while now, but I hadn't figured how to reproduce.
=== Symptoms ===
When I run "git svn rebase" (trace below) *from a working directory somewhere
deep in the checkout,* the index gets dirty.
git diff-index HEAD then shows a massive amount of files that were to be updated:
$ git diff-index HEAD
:100644 100644 faba562f37df8f4a308594b9b867470507229292
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 M .project
:100644 100644 0184158eda0e3787d5d29e1f23a6809ed3e4b54c
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 M README.txt
:100644 100644 d00be041aecaf00e2c3e7358911a6e5d493e9e7f
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 M docs/.gitignore
:100644 100644 bed116f07ba5742e6ed344553008c262656020c7
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 M docs/d3.3/.gitignore
[...]
This is always 100644 100644 SHA1 000...000 M filename.
=== Impact ===
- Several parts of git then show bogus local changes, for instance, gitk.
- git svn dcommit aborts because it believes the index were dirty
=== Workarounds ===
Either is sufficient:
1. cd to top-level directory before running git-svn
2. git update-index --refresh
=== Reproduce ===
1. Use a git-svn checkout that has at least one subdirectory
2. cd to that subdirectory
3. run git svn rebase. It concludes successfully, then:
4. git diff-index HEAD -> output like the one shown above.

Wow! I just filed a very similar issue at msysGit discussion group,
with steps to reproduce, etc. See here:
http://groups.google.com/group/msysgit/browse_thread/thread/c7218c7d1ba8949b
I could not make interactive rebase work, it just hanged there.
Going to the root of the repository fixed the problem.

Hi Matthias,
I can't reproduce this on a GNU/Linux system, so I'm guessing this
is a weird Cygwin/Windows issue, and I don't know Windows.

Do you deem it possible to have the workaround applied in code, i. e.
change to the top-level directory up front?
If not, any hints as to debugging facilities and procedures beyond
GIT_TRACE?

"git rebase" (invoked by "git svn") already does that. This could
be a bug in "git rebase" itself...

Well I usually use "strace -f", but that's Linux-only. Maybe there's
something similar for Cygwin.
