Hi team,
I am trying to migrate my SVN project to git, using simple git svn
clone command. The conversion stops at some revision with error:
 0 [main] perl 2287 cygwin_exception::open_stackdumpfile: Dumping
stack trace to perl.exe.stackdump

So, I tried to resume the migration using git svn fetch. It runs for few minutes and again stops with the below error: Svndiff data contains backward-sliding source view: Svndiff has backwards-sliding source views at C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/share/perl5/Git/SVN/Ra.pm line 312.

I searched for the solution almost everywhere and tried every single thing possible to solve this problem, but no luck. I thought I would really get some help in solving this issue by mailing the issue to you.

Thanks in advance!! The response really matters .

Regards, Chaya
