Sorry, but I am very frustrated with the whole thing, there is not real user guides for git-svn other that third party ones which seem to be wrong. I am using Fedora 10, GIT 1.6.0.6, the svn repo is standard layout although I only want trunk, it here :- svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk llvm This is quite a big repository 65000 or more revisions. The commands git svn clone http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk when connection fails I do a :- git svn fetch gitweb is not updating at all to show any change in the repository. Aaron
