If the have exactly the same history leading up to them, source trees and commit object (including timestamps), the only way they can be any different is if you've run into a bug in the SHA1 libraries.

If either of the above three are different though, you *will* end up with different commits.

Try doing "git cat-file commit <sha1-of-one-commit>" and then "git cat-file commit <sha1-of-other-commit>". If you take a diff between the two, you'll see how they differ (my guess would be the timestamps)

Git-svn uses the same timestamps as in svn, my guess is that one has more history than the other.

Re: git-svn commit id.

I studied the matter a lit bit and found out that there is an early commit that is different (in one repository if has lots deletions and in the other the diff is empty). This maybe an oddity of our svn repository that uses non-standard layout (atual in place of trunk, for instance).
