Hi Yaroslav,

Weird, I'm a bit confused by this myself but I'm out of time at the moment, but swapping '[svn-remote "svn"]' and "[svn-remote "svnr"]" seems to work, so there's apparently a bug in our handling of svn-remote != "svn" somewhere...

So the following config should work:

[svn-remote "svnt"]
        url = http://domain.com:/project/trunk
        fetch = :refs/remotes/trunk
[svn-remote "svn"]
        url = http://domain.com:/project/releases
        tags = /*:refs/remotes/tags/*

You should probably run "git svn fetch -R svnt" before running "git svn fetch" to pick up the tagged releases.
