Let's go further:

@@ -224,12 +227,14 @@ sub fetch {
        unless (-d $SVN_WC) {
                my @svn_co = ('svn','co',"-r$base->{revision}");
                push @svn_co,'--ignore-externals' unless $_no_ignore_ext;
-               sys(@svn_co, $SVN_URL, $SVN_WC);
+               sys(@svn_co, $SVN_URL . "\@$base->{revision}", $SVN_WC);
                chdir $SVN_WC or croak $!;


That allows git-svn not to fail at r1 (or at r3 when checking out
trunk/src only), and the 1st fetch runs OK.

The second fetch runs OK as well, but it shows the following somewhat
scary stuff before starting the import:

Checked out revision 166.
refs/remotes/git-newsvn
fatal: 'refs/remotes/git-newsvn': No such file or directory
r166 = 38a6ba0e3db486c65a611c54c53f838210ce7551


The results looks fine.  I don't know if it is expected to have the
master head stuck at remotes/git-oldsvn, though.

Thanks much for your help!
