Thanks for the svn2git ref. My issue seems to be that my svn rep has been used for all sorts of stuff: docs, general files, source code and therefore I have actually never followed the branches/, tags/, trunk/ git-svnimport requires. Do you know if svn2git allows you to import an svn repository with all revisions as is even if they don't follow normal path conventions for software repositories?

Cheers,
