Hello Petr, Miklos, All,

Recently I've setup an svn mirror on repo.or.cz for docutils projects[1]. Automatic regular updates by `git svn fetch` seem to work, so first thanks for the service.

However master is not updated at all, and also refs/heads/* are not populated from refs/remotes/* it seems.

In Girocco's taskd/clone.sh[2] and jobd/update.sh[3], I see there is a nice setup for master to be bound to trunk and also refs/remotes/heads/* to be propagates to refs/remotes/*:

---- taskd/clone.sh ----
svn://*)
    GIT_DIR=. git svn fetch
    # Neat Trick suggested by Miklos Vajna
    GIT_DIR=. git config remote.origin.url .
    GIT_DIR=. git config remote.origin.fetch +refs/remotes/heads/*:refs/heads/*
    GIT_DIR=. git config remote.origin.fetch +refs/remotes/trunk:refs/heads/master
    GIT_DIR=. git config remote.origin.fetch +refs/remotes/tags/*:refs/tags/*
    GIT_DIR=. git fetch
---- jobd/update.sh ----
svn://*)
        GIT_DIR=. bang git svn fetch
        GIT_DIR=. bang git fetch

But it seems it does not work. First I see there is a need for quoting, so e.g.

-   GIT_DIR=. git config remote.origin.fetch +refs/remotes/heads/*:refs/heads/*
+   GIT_DIR=. git config remote.origin.fetch '+refs/remotes/heads/*:refs/heads/*'
but I'm not sure it will fix the problem.
Can we do something about it please?

Thanks beforehand, Kirill
