Hi Lukas, this seems like an incompatible change, but it also matches the intent of the user if they use ignore-paths (which AFAIK is a rarely-used feature).

I guess it's OK to make it the default behavior, but maybe others have objections...

This patch (and your other) are both white-space damaged, but there doesn't need to be a whitespace change, there.

I'm not sure which mail client you use, but https://git-send-email.io/ documents git-send-email as being shipped with Git-for-Windows.

Personally, I'm fine with attachments if they can go through without whitespace damage (not speaking for the rest of git@vger). You can test by emailing yourself and trying "git am" on it.

Again, no extraneous whitespace changes, please.

Initializing Git::SVN::Fetcher here and closing it is an expensive operation since it calls git-config(1) many times. This is especially bad for most users who do not use --ignore-paths at all.

I know git-svn isn't fast, but I've been hoping to find spare time to make it use fast-import and speed it up, eventually.

Instead, I think it's possible to bail out of Git::SVN::do_fetch and still skip the commit without extra network traffic. I suggest you try that route, instead.

Style: put whitespace between operators for readability
and consistency with the rest of our code:
	my $skip = $self->is_empty_commit($paths, $fetcher);
        if ($skip) {
		print "skip commit $r\n";
		...
We also use hard tabs for indentation.

The `-d' check is invalid. "git-svn fetch" never touches the working tree.

Same style comments as before, and a single empty line in-between subs is enough. Thanks.
