git svn: how to recover from checksum mismatch?

git svn: how to recover from checksum mismatch?

[Alexander Gladysh]

Hi, list!

Today I've upgraded to git 1.5.6 from 1.5.5.something (probably 1).
When I've run git svn rebase on my repo, it complained about "checksum
mismatch: trunk/path/myfile HASH".

BTW, Before that failing commit there were one more (successful) with
some strange complains about whitespace errors:

    warning: CRLF will be replaced by LF in
/var/folders/8u/8uiW+GhrGka2OlIHiT1fsU+++TI/-Tmp-/hoizGwiM2P

I'm on OS X 10.5.3 and my repo is not in /var/folders tree (trailing
part of path is different for each file).

The same errors are on my second copy of that repo (independent git
repo made by the same git svn init as first).

When I run git svn init + git svn fetch on a fresh folder, it bails
out with checksum error after a few first commits (on 20th commit
actually) while giving the same odd CRLF warnings.

When I run git svn rebase on another machine (Ubuntu Hardy, git
1.5.5.1), it run smoothly without errors, so this, probably, is not an
SVN repo corruption.

I have reverted back to git 1.5.5.1, but I still get that checksum
error. I'm fetching a fresh git svn init+fetch from svn, but it takes
a few hours, and I have to do it twice (for each of my two repos). Any
advice on how can I recover less painlessly?

Thank you in advance,
Alexander.

That is more painlessly of course, not less, sorry :)
