I've done lots of trial-and-error and I think I've finally found the point where the script stops working. Fortunately, git-svn is a perl script :-). So I've found in the sub gs_do_update, the statement

   $reporter->finish_report($pool);

is the last executed function. Here is what Data::Dumper says about the $pool parameter:

  $VAR1 = bless(
              do {
                  \(
                      my $o = bless(
                         do{
                              \(my $o = 148559280)
                         },
                         '_p_apr_pool_t'
                      )
                   )
              },
              'SVN::Pool'
          );

I have tried to format the Data::Dumper output more readable.

Any hints how to get closer to the problem?
