John,
Thanks for your quick reply. I tried that, but got the following error:

$ git clone ../test2/ Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/warren/projects/tmp/test2- git-clone/test2/.git/ # ...svn test2 dir already created with subdirs trunk, tags and branches... $ git svn init https://svn/svn/SANDBOX/warren/test2 -T trunk -t tags - b branches Using higher level of URL: https://svn/svn/SANDBOX/warren/test2 => https://svn/svn $ git svn dcommit Can't call method "full_url" on an undefined value at /opt/local/ libexec/git-core/git-svn line 425.

I then tried the hints from here: http://www.basementcoders.com/2008/9/30/git-svn-gotcha , but still no luck:

$ git merge --no-ff master Already up-to-date. $ git svn dcommit Can't call method "full_url" on an undefined value at /opt/local/ libexec/git-core/git-svn line 425.
