I asked about this on the IRC channel the other day and was advised to submit a bug report to the mailing list. My problem is this with our internal repo
$ svn co svn+ssh://svn@devel.sharcnet.ca/data/svn/sharcware
works as you would expect
$ git svn clone svn+ssh://svn@devel.sharcnet.ca/data/svn/sharcware Initialized empty Git repository in .git/
checks out nothing. However, if I do
$ svn log svn+ssh://svn@devel.sharcnet.ca/data/svn/sharcware -r HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1576 | network | 2010-10-19 13:39:29 -0400 (Tue, 19 Oct 2010) | 1 line
Automated network config update. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ git svn clone svn+ssh://svn@devel.sharcnet.ca/data/svn/sharcware -r 1:r1576 ...<whole bunch of cloning output removed>...
then I get everything as I should. I would then think this should also work
$ git svn clone svn+ssh://svn@devel.sharcnet.ca/data/svn/sharcware -r 1:HEAD Initialized empty Git repository in .git/
but it does not.
Thanks! -Tyson
PS: The repo is not organized according to the standard format at all. It is just a single trunk rooted at /data/svn/sharcware.
