Hello everyone,
I've got a fun git-svn bug I can't seem to track down. The
google is no help. I'm just trying to clone a full repo. I'm not
looking to push changes back, and I've done this before, yet now (1.6.3
and 1.6.3.1) it's not working.
The clone command and error is:
$ git svn clone --stdlayout --no-metadata -Aauthors http://oss.oracle.com/projects/oracleasm/src/ driver-git
Initialized empty Git repository in

missing UUID at the end of .git/svn/trunk/.rev_db.????????-????-????-????-???????????? at /usr/lib/git-core/git-svn line 4488
You can drop the --no-metadata if you like - it doesn't help. Clearly
it's tripping on the first revision. I'm not sure what UUID it's
looking for. The manpage speaks of UUIDs in regards to svk/svnsync, and
I'm not using those.
I suspect the last time I did this was in the 1.5 range (my
distribution has obviously moved on). But I would think this was tested
:-)
