Thanks.  No tests necessary/feasible?  Just being curious.

They seemed simple and obvious enough to me,
(and most importantly, didn't trigger regressions).
If Ramkumar or anybody else has the time, I'd welcome them.

I can see that the top-most one is about .git that is a textual
symlink ".gitdir: <elsewhere>" and the code after this part needed
to convert it to the real place in order to be able to read/write
"${GIT_DIR}/<some file>", so that is obvious to me.

But the other one just says "handle missing ref_id case correctly"
without clarifying what is incorrect in the original and how the
desired correct behaviour is different (in other words, what breaks
without this change)

To which a natural reaction was "Can the existing breakage
demonstrated by a test?".

If it is obvious for git-svn folks, then I wouldn't complain,
though.

There's a lot to do, if we really want to dig deeper.

The second git-svn-basic test onwards doesn't pass for me, so I really
can't do much in the way of contributing tests until that's fixed.

Couldn't open a repository: Unable to connect to a repository at URL
'file:///Users/artagnon/src/git/t/trash%20directory.t9100-git-svn-basic/svnrepo':
Unable to open an ra_local session to URL: Unable to open repository
'file:///Users/artagnon/src/git/t/trash%20directory.t9100-git-svn-basic/svnrepo':
Expected FS format between '1' and '4'; found format '6' at
/Users/artagnon/src/git/perl/blib/lib/Git/SVN.pm line 148.

```

I haven't seen this before.  Which SVN Perl binding version are you
using?  Perhaps your "svnadmin" tool is from a different SVN version
or installation of SVN than your Perl bindings?

I have two installations of Subversion: the system one is at
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools @ version 1.7.17, and the brew
installed one is at /usr/local @ version 1.8.10. When I build git from
scratch, it links to the dated SVN bindings for some reason. I suspect
I have to tweak $PERL5LIB?

Can we patch git-svn to link to the Right one on OS X?

```

Adding it to GITPERLLIB should work...

You should be able to set up everything in the Makefile, that has
special cases for Fink and Darwin ports, at least.  Somebody who knows
OS X packaging systems might have better advice.

I tried everything including replicating the commands in the brew
formula that does the Right thing:
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/git.rb

I'm clearly missing something. Can someone on Darwin tell us the right
flags/ env variables?
