Or, omit "-s" if you want the trunk branch only. > Initialized empty Git repository in > /home/anand/Projects/wordpress/buddypress/.git/ > Using higher level of URL: http://svn.buddypress.org/trunk => > http://svn.buddypress.org > > % git --version > git version 1.7.0.4 > > And at the end, git svn appears to successfull complete but nothing > has occurred.

We don't need it in this case, but looking at it might have given you the clue (trunk/trunk).
