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.
