rm .git/refs/remotes/$GIT_SVN_ID .git/svn/$GIT_SVN_ID/.rev_db
git svn -i $GIT_SVN_ID rebuild

I don't think that updating git-svn while using it is a problem, because
Perl won't (to my knowledge) reread it after it's loaded, and git-svn
does not re-exec itself (it'll fork, however).  Weird... the change
(15941) was a property-only change; however.
