Hi,

This bug was reported by sh4rm4 on #git-devel a few minutes ago [1].

Steps to reproduce: $ git svn clone --no-metadata -T trunk http://dxirc.googlecode.com/svn/

Output: Found possible branch point: http://dxirc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk => http://dxirc.googlecode.com/svn/branches/0.20, 93 Use of uninitialized value $u in substitution (s///) at /usr/lib/git/git-svn line 1733. Use of uninitialized value $u in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/lib/git/git-svn line 1733. refs/remotes/trunk: 'http://dxirc.googlecode.com/svn' not found in ''

Comments: Works fine when '--no-metadata' is omitted. It seems to be a simple variable-initialization bug. I would have posted a patch, but I can't test it on my own system because git-svn doesn't work with the upstream Subversion-related libraries I have installed.

Works fine for me, using:

git svn --version git-svn version 1.7.5.rc0.365.g23929a (svn 1.6.16)

What are the affected versions?

I'm sorry, but I have no additional information about the bug. I simply reported it on someone else's behalf, hoping that someone on the list would be able to reproduce it and supply a fix (see IRC conversation and explanation for not being able to test it myself).

I am reproducing the problem here. Unfortunately I can't share the repository with you but I'm willing to try debugging it a bit.

Which version of git/git-svn are you using? (run: "git svn --version") Can you reproduce it with newer versions? (I can't)
