Hmmm, guess it wasn't that obvious to me!! :-)
I have 1.6.0.2 installed, which does support the --track option; did a later git support -t as well as --track?
> git --version
git version 1.6.0.2
Is there some way to know what version of git the svn2git I have installed supports?  And any way to get a version of svn2git that supports the one I have.
Thanks for your patience.
Nolan

git branch supports the -t or --track option. You obviously have too old a git with too new a svn2git.
