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..
