hi all: when I use "git svn" to checkout some repositories, it shows below error

Removing duplicate objects: 100% (256/256), done. error: git checkout-index: unable to create symlink linux-kernel/linux-3.0.20/arch/microblaze/boot/dts/system.dts (File name too long) Checking out files: 100% (42191/42191), done. read-tree -m -u -v HEAD HEAD: command returned error: 128 $

Does that mean there is a limitation about directory depths when using "git svn"?

Thanks for your help
