Thank you Jonathan.
I had a breakthrough yesterday on this problem. To make a long story
short my ssh connection to the server where I was running 'nohup git
svn clone' was timing out. Additionally the nohup I was using wasn't
really protecting the git svn clone process so an hour or two after
the ssh disconnected, the git would terminate leaving me with an
imcomplete repository. I don't understand why the nohup wasn't
working yet. So my problem wasn't due to git itself.
I started my most recent git svn clone and it's now been running for
18 hours. I'm optimistic that I've solved the problem. If my git
does terminate early then I'll try a 'git svn fetch' to complete the
clone, based on what you said in your post.
