Hi,

Using both git 1.7.0.4 and 1.5.6.5 I am unable to clone the Subversion respository for Serendipity.

URL: svn://svn.berlios.de/serendipity
It fails consistently on r1341 with:

(1.5.6.5): Svndiff data contains invalid instruction: Invalid diff stream: [tgt] insn 335 starts beyond the target view position at /usr/bin/git-svn line 3856

and

(1.7.0.4): Svndiff data contains invalid instruction: Invalid diff stream: [tgt] insn 335 starts beyond the target view position at /usr/lib/git-core/git-svn line 5047

On, seemingly UTF-8 encoded data. Any ideas / pointers would be appreciated.

Regards, Anand
