Hi all,

I've been using git to manually track changes to a project that uses
svn as its primary SCM.

git-svn looks like it can help me streamline my workflow, but I'm
getting stuck with the following:

    mkdir foo
    cd foo
    git-svn init $URL  <--- the svn URL
    git-svn fetch
    Author: dfcimm3 not defined in  file

:-(

Can someone point me to the file and the place that describes what I
should put in it?  There are many committers to the svn project.  I'm
hoping that I will not have to enumerate all of their names in some
file.

I'm using git version 1.3.0.rc1.g40e9, and BTW, enjoying it very much.

Thanks,

+ seth
