I cannot, this does not revert cleanly and I don't know how to properly resolve this conflict. I'm no Perl expert! But reverting using the version just before fixes this problem. > Is it possible you have some weird branches outside of the > refs/remotes tree (either in .git itself, or in .git/refs/*) that you > forgot about, and which the new version of git-svn is finding somehow? I do not see something under .git/refs/* (only empty directories). The project has been imported using something like this: $ git svn clone --prefix=svn/ svn+ssh://server/path \ --revision=580:HEAD \ --trunk=trunk/project \ --tags=tags/project \ --branches=branches/project \ --branches="branches/global/*/project" project Nothing fancy. The git-svn mirrors is updated every night using Git 1.6.4 without problem.
