From: Gerrit Pape Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2007 16:47:41 GMT Subject: [PATCH] git-svn: trailing slash in prefix is mandatory with --branches/-b Message-ID: <20070619164741.16352.qmail@1b445471b48f1c.315fe32.mid.smarden.org> Make clear in the documentation that when using --branches/-b and --prefix with 'init', the prefix must include a trailing slash. This matches the actual behavior of git-svn, e.g.: $ git svn init -Ttrunk -treleases -bbranches --prefix xxx \ http://svn.sacredchao.net/svn/quodlibet/ --prefix='xxx' must have a trailing slash '/' $ This was noticed by R.
