The geticons.pl file on the git side doesn't match what SVN expects when doing a delta.

Something went wrong with your mirror script (the way you're doing externals is probably screwing it up, badly).

Compare the "git svn log" output of your in-progress repository with the "svn log http://josm.openstreetmap.de/svn/trunk"

The revision numbers/commit messages don't sync up at all.
