* handling of svn:externals using submodules
The main concern I have is to get the semantics right: AFAICT
svn:externals has _no notion_ of "what is current". It just _always_
fetches the HEAD. Even if you check out an ancient revision in the
"superproject".
Usually, yes. But you could specify a specific revision with -r <rev>.
I do not see how that helps defining the semantics for git-svn at all.
With the new 1.5, it is also possible to specify pegged revisions. Much
better, because otherwise subversion would require that the path existed
in the server in HEAD.
As I already commented, the possibility (and for most svn repositories,
the likelihood) that nothing is pegged makes this less helpful, either.
Ciao,
