Filesystem has no item: Working copy path [...] does not exist in repository at /usr/bin/git-svn line 3856

Hi,
i'm trying to clone a public SVN repo (user = guest, password is
empty/blank/not neeeded)

this was my steps:

$ git --version
git version 1.5.6.5
$ mkdir plugins
$ cd plugins
$ git svn init http://svn.liferay.com/repos/public/plugins -T trunk -b
branches # doesn't have tags
$ git svn fetch
[...]
# it takes hours.....
[...]
r25355 = ee13a19e656e6f96b1ebb562b10ee7fa688921df (svn/trunk)
Filesystem has no item: Working copy path 'plugins/branches/trunk'
does not exist in repository at /usr/bin/git-svn line 3856


after that revision it give me that error... and then stops.
if I issue again the git svn fetch it keep telling me the error and I
can't complete the cloning.

I've edited my .git/config between git svn init and git svn fetch
adding "svn" to the target branch and url name

[core]
	repositoryformatversion = 0
	filemode = true
	bare = false
	logallrefupdates = true
[svn-remote "svn"]
	url = http://svn.liferay.com/repos/public
	fetch = plugins/trunk:refs/remotes/svn/trunk
	branches = plugins/branches/*:refs/remotes/svn/*

you can use
git svn fetch --revision 25255:HEAD

to make it take less time (hours anyway)...

Any help will be appreciated,

thanks,
regards,
Daniele
