Re: svn repository URL and git

From: H Krishnan <hidden>

Hi,
I think I resolved this problem by using --rewrite-root as suggested. I used a 
dummy root during the git-svn clone:

git-svn clone --rewrite-root http://git.is.great <myrepo>

All my commit messages now have http://git.is.great but I am able to change the 
repository URL and continue.

Could this approach be used as an insurance against svn url changes? When 
initializing the repository, we could use --rewrite-root. Subsequently, if the 
svn repository relocates, we need to edit only .git/config. 

Thanks for your help.
