Hi,

it seams so, that git-svn sets the master branch to that svn branch which has the highest revision!

I cloned a svn repo today where exactly this happend. I.e. master pointed not to the trunk but to the branch with the highest revision. After trunk moved forward, a git svn rebase told me that master is up to date.

A second clean clone of this repo and master pointed to trunk.
Is this indented?
