Unable to clone svn repository

m.skoric@web.de· Sep 2, 2008, 14:58 UTC · lore

Hi guys,

im getting an error when im trying to clone a big svn repository. trunk and a couple of branches worked before git crashed.

git Version 1.6.0.1

command: git-svn clone https://SECRETURL --trunk=trunk --branches=branches --tags=tags error:

Found possible branch point: https://SECRETURL/branches/dirk/Abo-Uebernahme (Bug #994) => https://SECRETURL/branches/Abo-Uebernahme (Bug #994), 341
Initializing parent: Abo-Uebernahme (Bug #994)@341
W: Ignoring error from SVN, path probably does not exist: (175002): RA layer request failed: REPORT request failed on '/svn/tixx1/!svn/bc/101': REPORT of '/svn/tixx1/!svn/bc/101': Could not read chunk size: Secure connection truncated (https://SECRETURL)
W: Do not be alarmed at the above message git-svn is just searching aggressively for old history.
This may take a while on large repositories
Found possible branch point: https://SECRETURL/trunk => https://SECRETURL/branches/dirk/Abo-Uebernahme (Bug #994), 203

Bad URL passed to RA layer: Malformed URL for repository at /usr/bin/git-svn line 3792

Maybe a https problem -> "Secure connection truncated (https://SECRETURL)" ? Anyone has an idea and can help me?

The following patch should fix it. The strange URL with '#' and ')' threw it off.

I've also pushed this out to git://git.bogomips.org/git-svn.git

Subject: [PATCH] git-svn: fix handling of even funkier branch names

Apparently do_switch() tolerates the lack of escaping in less funky branch names. For the really strange and scary ones, we need to escape them properly. It strangely maintains compatible with the existing handling of branch names with spaces and exclamation marks.
