You can do "git branch -a" to see which branch name git svn uses, it might be 'git-svn', it depends on which version you're using I think.

Thank you for the suggestion - the first part seemed to work: once I got the correct name, "...reset --hard" responded with:
"HEAD is now at 4939935 first commit".
However, when I tried "git svn rebase" again, I still got this error:
"Unable to determine upstream SVN infromation from working tree history".
Have I done something wrong...?
