I'm trying again, using a new repository directory and see what happens. Like you said, maybe the original one got corrupt or something. I'm using the following command: $ git svn clone -s --authors-file=/mnt/samba/git/fpc-users.txt \ http://svn2.freepascal.org/svn/fpc fpc_new.git Lets hope it goes through this time. I'll report on my progress later. If this doesn't work, I'll try it without the --authors-file option. If it doesn't go well, any chance you still have that FPC repository lying around? Would it then be possible for you to repack the repository and archive (zip, bzip, 7zip etc..) the repository so I could download the whole thing from you? But this is ONLY if my new attempt doesn't work. I'm hoping all will go well though, otherwise I am totally stumped as to why I can't clone it myself.
