Thanks for the tip. I was running git 1.5.0, which didn't support "clone" to git-svn. I upgraded to 1.5.1.3 and followed your suggestions.

If I decide to flush the svn repository in favor of git, I'll probably do some manual rearrangement so that commands like "git tag -l" gives useful results. thanks, dave h
