Re: How to use git-svnimport without trunk, tags and branches?

But times ago I have had the idea of not using the traditional
structure of subversion for some of my repositories but using the
repository directly as single directory - no trunk, no tags, no
branches. That was because I thought only a geek would have the
"complicated" way for only a few files without any need for tags and
branches. And now the git-svnimport does not seem to be able to
handle a SVN-repos structure like mine:

~/svnrepos/
     |------- projectA
                 |---- foo.cpp
                 |---- foo.h

I want to import projectA into git _with_ the commit-history (there
are of course no tags and no branches). Is there a way to do that
with git-svnimport? Or do I have to throw away all the details,
checkout projectA and reimport it as initial version with git?

You could try something like this:

  trunk: svnrepos/projectA
  tags: svnrepos/dummytags
  branches: svnrepos/dummybranches

I haven't tested, but I think that kind of maneouver should work.
