This gives the error:\n\n...\n A sip2slnp/src/main/Sip2SlnpDaemon.c\n A sip2slnp/src/main/Sip2SlnpServer.c\nfatal: name consists only of disallowed characters:\n32768 at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26.1/Git/SVN/Ra.pm line 476.\n\nand it took me a while to understand that the message means that the\nfull name MUST be there. IMHO this should be noted.\n\n2)\nThe page says in the section about cleanups after cloning that the\nbranch 'trunk' should be delted, but this gives an error:\n\n git branch -d trunk\n error: branch 'trunk' not found.\n\nI do have only:\n\n git branch --list | egrep 'master|trunk|HEAD'\n * master\n origin/trunk\n\nThanks for the good doc.\n\n\tmatthias\n-- \nMatthias Apitz, ✉ guru@unixarea.de, http://www.unixarea.de/ +49-176-38902045\nPublic GnuPG key: http://www.unixarea.de/key.pub\n"}]}
