Hi.

We started using git-svn at my company and it's going pretty well so far.

The only problem I have is that when new branches and tags are created in SVN, how do I get those branches to show up in git as remote branches.

I did the normal git svn clone -s -prefix svn/ .... and it found all the branches and tags up to that point.

But since then, a couple new SVN branches and tags have been created, and I need them to appear in my git repo.

I'm sure I just missed something simple, but I couldn't find this.

Thanks,

Andrew

"git svn fetch" should get them.
