The easiest thing to do is\n-probably just to rm -rf $GIT_DIR/git-svn/tree and run 'rebuild'. You\n-can avoid this problem entirely by using 'dcommit'.\n-\n We ignore all SVN properties except svn:executable. Too difficult to\n map them since we rely heavily on git write-tree being _exactly_ the\n same on both the SVN and git working trees and I prefer not to clutter\n-- \n1.5.0.rc0.g244a7\n"},{"id":"31327","messageId":"7vps9nhfvc.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net","threadId":"6321","inReplyTo":"20070110002017.GA11564@midwinter.com","subject":"Re: [PATCH] Update git-svn manpage to remove the implication that SVN::* is optional.","fromName":"Junio C Hamano","fromEmail":"junkio@cox.net","sentAt":"2007-01-10T00:42:15Z","receivedAt":"2007-01-10T00:42:15Z","isPatch":true,"sender":{"key":"gitster@pobox.com","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/54884?v=4"},"body":"Looks sane.
