This morning i decided to test the clone with the full project i'm working
on (11,000 files) and I get the error message Checksum mismatch: vn2.sln

Can someone help with why this error is happening? Is there an issue with
the GIT clone and large repositories?

Which git version is that? There was some bug in git-svn that caused it
to fill the disk with temporary files, without noticing that those files
get truncated when the disk is full. That was fixed in some 1.6.0.x
release IIRC.

I don't know if this is the same issue, but the I get a similar error
on the public twisted-python repository on both windows and linux,
with several different versions and plenty of free disk space. As this
is a publicly accessible repository it should be easy to reproduce:

git svn init -s svn://svn.twistedmatrix.com/svn/Twisted twisted
cd twisted
git svn fetch -r 13611:HEAD

This ultimately dies with the following error:
W: +empty_dir: trunk/doc/core/howto/listings/finger/finger
r13612 = f6d995ac255e3dfa08a517a6e72fbcfe63feaaa0 (trunk)

I found this a long time ago but never got around to analyze or report it.
