Hi, the problem seems to persist, this is 1.5.5:

$ rm -rf lunar-applet && rm -rf lunar-applet &&
  git version &&
  git svn clone svn://svn.debian.org/chinese/packages/lunar-applet 2>&1 |
    tail -n 14
git version 1.5.5
r155 = e99aaa44f7c306d631501b949a0b35be162c1447 (git-svn@159)

Following parent with do_switch
Malformed network data: Malformed network data at /usr/bin/git-svn line 2270

I can't to suggest a fix, sorry.

Thanks, Gerrit.
