Hello,
using git v1.6.3.1 from Debian I fail to successfully run
	git svn clone svn://svn.debian.org/kernel/dists/trunk/linux-2.6
It runs for some time and then ends in:
	...
	r4695 = f552d98386b301cbeaa3b5a20f9e9d5d3c9c4886 (git-svn)
		M	debian/arch/alpha/defines
	r4696 = 18c0a37de057d24955b66e8f49db0791f6018288 (git-svn)
	Found possible branch point: svn://svn.debian.org/kernel/dists/sid/linux-2.6 => svn://svn.debian.org/kernel/dists/trunk/linux-2.6, 4731
	Initializing parent: git-svn@4731
	W: Ignoring error from SVN, path probably does not exist: (160013): Filesystem has no item: File not found: revision 101, path '/dists/sid/linux-2.6'
	W: Do not be alarmed at the above message git-svn is just searching aggressively for old history.
	This may take a while on large repositories
	Found possible branch point: svn://svn.debian.org/kernel/dists/sid/kernel/linux-2.6 => svn://svn.debian.org/kernel/dists/sid/linux-2.6, 4094
	Initializing parent: git-svn@4094
	Found branch parent: (git-svn@4731) e71da640593b63647fb23f915acee03f02fbaa98
	Following parent with do_switch
	Invalid filesystem path syntax: Cannot replace a directory from within at /usr/lib/git-core/git-svn line 4388
Is someone wants to take a look, the repo is browsable at
	http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/kernel/dists/trunk/#_dists_trunk_

Best regards Uwe
