Can somebody help me? svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/branches/release13.07 ofbiz.13.07 Yes i can clone it with SVN and add it to git. But this disturbes the workflow and causes problems when someone commits to this branch which should be a read-only mirror only. Works fine with svn, git svn clone however does not work.

It checked r1 to r500000+ with took some time. The unit-tests where successful so i think the broken pipe was not an issue in the end. Sorry for disturbing you.
