Re: git svn show-ignore bug?

Hi,

so I spoke to the SVN admin and he says that possibly the repo has
been corrupted a while ago. The command you asked me to run fails, it
can't authenticate. That command was svn pg -R svn:ignore
https://www.iam.unibe.ch/scg/svn_repos.

Some old version in the repo may be corrupt and I didn't get the details.

So, well, I guess it's nothing you can do :)

Hi there, in the IRC channel today, someone asked me to report this
behavior to you because they suspect a bug in show-ignore.

Ok, so here's the output of git svn info:

I can do git svn rebase, git svn fetch, and those things work. Dcommit,
works, too. But git svn show-ignore >> .gitignore does not work.

Hi Niko, this is really strange, especially when dcommit works.

This is the dialog with the system:

That's all the info I have, I'm afraid. I'm sure that the password is
correct, as it works from XCode.

Which version of git is this?  Are you in contact with the SVN server
administrator?  Maybe they can look at server logs for you.

Also, can you try the following command with plain svn?

 svn pg -R svn:ignore https://www.iam.unibe.ch/scg/svn_repos

Thanks.  Also, if anybody else there can help look into this it would be
greatly appreciated, my authentication knowledge is still a bit on the
weak side.
