Hi *,

    currently it is used as a prefix. So, if you have a repository as:

/path/to/repository/project/file
/path/to/repository/project-2/file

and execute:
git-svn init file:///path/to/repository/project
git-svn fetch

you end up with a project with the following files:

file
-2/file

    As a real example you could try:
git-svn init svn://svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/dists/trunk/linux-2.6/
git-svn fetch -r5040:5060

   See you
