Hi,
git-svnimport broken between git-1.4.3.5 and git-1.4.4

I have found that commit 83936a29e275bc0c04f60d3333e4951a9e16b1fc is the cause of this.

I am using git-svnimport to work with a repo with this layout:

https://server/repo/trunk https://server/repo/tags/x.y.z https://server/repo/branches/somebranch

Starting a fresh import:
# git-svnimport -v -i -C repo -r https://server repo

RA layer request failed: PROPFIND request failed on '/trunk/.cvsignore':
PROPFIND of '/trunk/.cvsignore': 405 Method Not Allowed (https://server)
at /usr/bin/git-svnimport line 358

According to the server logs, git is requesting /trunk/.cvsignore rather than /repo/trunk/.cvsignore

I'm happy to test patches and whatnot but don't have time to investigate further right now.

Thanks!
