That sounds too complicated. There should be an easier way (i hope:) I have the following at the moment:

rm -rf plone.app.locales ; mkdir plone.app.locales ; cd plone.app.locales git svn init -T trunk http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/plone.app.locales touch start ; git add start ; git commit -m start git svn fetch -r49624:HEAD git rebase --onto master --root trunk --preserve-merges git checkout -b plone

plone branch looks good, now I would like to do the same with collective/plone.app.locales. I tried a couple of things but ended up getting errors like:

Rebuilding .git/svn/refs/remotes/trunk/.rev_map.db7f04ef-aaf3-0310-a811-c281ed44c4ad ... Done rebuilding .git/svn/refs/remotes/trunk/.rev_map.db7f04ef-aaf3-0310-a811-c281ed44c4ad RA layer request failed: REPORT of '/svn/collective/!svn/vcc/default': Could not read chunk size: connection was closed by server (http://svn.plone.org) at /usr/lib/git-core/git-svn line 5131

Is there some way around these errors?

Thanks.. Serhat
