I have been tying for a week to get git svn to work. If i do a 'git clone' 
and if falls over 'git svn fetch' picks up from where it left off, but on 
completion I can only see the older stuff if at all and a 'git clone rebase' 
eithr shoud up unreconsilable differences or refuses to execute the command 
at all, gust giving uphelpfull help afaics.

Does anyone have a real work how to for git svn ?

Otherwise I am giving up and either going back to svn or over to mercurial.
