git-svn: Having a "rare" structure

Hi all,

First of all, please CC responses to me as I'm not subscribed to this list ;)

On the subject, I use git-svn to for most of my stuff and also to "interact" with some SVN projects out there, there's one that is driving me mad.

The Django project has a (somehow) rare SVN structure that I almost managet to make git-svn understand, but a recent "rarity" to the structure broke it again and I haven't succeeded in making git-svn understand it, so I'm trying to get some guidance on how to make git-svn understand the structure.

Right know the Django SVN repo is like that: browse: http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django svn url: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django

trunk/ tags/notable_moments/ tags/releases/ branches/* branches/features/ branches/releases/

Until now, the last two didn't exist and git-svn was working nicely, but now "features" and "releases" were created, and git-svn is taking them as if they were branches, while they arent (branches are in subdirectories of those two).

My git repo was done like that until now:

    git svn init --prefix svn/
http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django -T trunk -b branches -t
'tags/*/*'
    git svn fetch

With that, git-svn understood that tags were in the subdirectories of tags/{notable_moments,releases}/ but I can't do that with the branches as there are branches also in the top branches/ directory.

I do not really care about those branches on the top directory as those are old, so I really only need git-svn to understand the {features,releases}/* thing. So:

How can I do something like "-b branches/{features,releases}/*" making git-svn ignore the other top-level branches? Or, can I make it understand both, the top-level ones and the ones inside those two subdirectories?

Note that I just gueesed the "-b branches/{features,releases}/*" thing; I didn't try it, tryiing takes lots of time and bandwidth ;\\

Thanks for all, Marc
