Thanks, I was not sure which I should use, I had tried both with similar results. Here is what I used with git-svn

> git-svn clone /working/svn/networking/wireshark .

Initialized empty Git repository in .git/ Bad URL passed to RA layer: Unrecognized URL scheme for '/working/svn/networking/wireshark' at /usr/bin/git-svn line 934

It appears I am unable to use local repo's unless I have the setup to use via http. I really would rather just take from my local working svn to git.

Thanks,
