The HEAD pointed to refs/heads/master as usual, but there was\nnothing in refs/heads at all.\n\nI also tried:\ngit svn clone https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ ivy-core -s --prefix=incubator/ivy/core/\n\nAnd got no errors, but there wasn't any working tree in ivy-core\nafterwards. Then I tried 'git svn rebase':\n\nfatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.\nUse '--' to separate paths from revisions\nfatal: Needed a single revision\ninvalid upstream\n\nDue to the same \"nothing in refs/heads\" situation. Also there is this\n23M file .git/svn/incubator/ivy/core/trunk/.rev_db.13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef6\nthat contains all 0's.\n\nThe part before \"I also tried...\" was with git 1.5.3.  \"I also tried...\"\nwas with git 1.5.3.1.112.gb7a2 as of last night.\n\nCheers.\n-- \nJing Xue\n"}]}
