Hi all,

I'm experiencing an error message importing a new svn repository using cygwin git, version 1.7.2.3

> fatal: refs/remotes/trunk: not a valid SHA1
> update-ref refs/heads/master refs/remotes/trunk: command returned error: 128
My .git/config file (nothing looks amiss to me):
[core]
	repositoryformatversion = 0
	filemode = true
	bare = false
	logallrefupdates = true
	ignorecase = true
[svn-remote "svn"]
	url = <redacted>
	fetch = iem/procedures/iem:refs/remotes/trunk
	branches = iem/procedures/Z_Folders/*:refs/remotes/*

It appears that this error was seen before in an older version that didn't deal with extra "/"s appropriately, but I don't see that issue here.

Thanks, -Nate
