Hello,

As I have reported yesterday on IRC, git-svn has problems with branches containing spaces. I get the following message, when I want to clone from the repository containing a branch with a space. Cloning until the revision the branch is created everything works fine.

fatal: refs/remotes/Modbus Error Limit Fix: cannot lock the ref update-ref -m r1897 refs/remotes/Modbus Error Limit Fix ff0819c8e9c97c24e9865bc868c503fd9b64f980: command returned error: 128

Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Robert Ewald
