That sounds suspiciously similar to what I observed long time ago:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/46361/focus=46558

And $gmane/47151 in the thread, aka dc43166 (git-svn: don't minimize-url
when doing an init that tracks multiple paths, 2007-05-19), supposed to
have fixed it.

Hmm...  Eric?
