Could anyone give me an example how to import this branch: svn.gnome.org/svn/banshee/branches/banshee/stable

I tried git-svnimport -v -T banshee/stable/ -o master http://svn.gnome.org/svn/banshee and he imports a lot - but not the branch I want. Seems like I'm missing something :(

git-svnimport should probably be officially deprecated; you're not the first person to struggle with it. Fortunately there's another option provided with Git which will likely give you what you're looking for:

   git svn clone http://svn.gnome.org/svn/banshee/branches/banshee/stable

Good luck, Sean

Okay, I tried git-svn after I was stuck with svnimport. Although I still couldn't figure out how to clone a single branch (due to some confusing complaints) I just cloned the whole repro, which was working fine. Thanks.
