We are trying to move from SVN to GIT but we are having problems

git --version git version 1.7.9.rc1

I updated because I had the same problem also with version 1.7.5 (just different line number)

Running command: git svn fetch Found possible branch point: http://our_server/svn/FUL/trunk => http://our_server/svn/FUL/tags/2011_11_26_1223AM, 822 Use of uninitialized value $u in substitution (s///) at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 2097. Use of uninitialized value $u in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 2097. refs/remotes/svn/trunk: 'http://our_server/svn/FUL' not found in ''

The folder tags/2011_11_26_1223AM was created with SVN copy. It may also be deleted and recreated above with the same name.

I hope it is an easy fix.
Best,
   Chris

Re: Bug in git svn fetch

More details:
The previous commands were (I am using svn2git):

git svn init --prefix=svn/ --username=chris --no-metadata --trunk=trunk --tags=tags --branches=branches http://our_server/svn/FL/trunk/ git config --local svn.authorsfile authors_file

The process failed before using http://our_server/svn/FL (instead of http://our_server/svn/FL/trunk)

We are not sure but it is very likely that on SVN we did a SVN copy, then and SVN delete and again an SVN copy on the same folder. I hope this help.

Best,
    Chris
