Re: [GIT-SVN] master follows not trunk

Hi,

it seams so, that git-svn sets the master branch to that svn branch
which has the highest revision!

I cloned a svn repo today where exactly this happend. I.e. master
pointed not to the trunk but to the branch with the highest revision.
After trunk moved forward, a git svn rebase told me that master is up
to date.

A second clean clone of this repo and master pointed to trunk.

Is this indented?

Yes it was intended.  It was once the case that several repositories I
tracked had work done almost exclusively in branches and trunk could've
been months/years behind and worthless.

However, this issue has come up many times now so maybe setting
master==trunk if trunk exists (sometimes it does not)...

Any objections?
