Hi, this problem popped up again, please see
 http://bugs.debian.org/464713
 
I can reproduce it with v1.5.4 through

 $ git svn clone svn://svn.debian.org/chinese/packages/lunar-applet
 [...]
 r159 = 010d0b481753bd32ce0255ce433d63e14114d3b6 (git-svn@159)
 Found branch parent: (git-svn) 010d0b481753bd32ce0255ce433d63e14114d3b6
 Following parent with do_switch
 Malformed network data: Malformed network data at /usr/bin/git-svn line
