Re: How to migrate a complex directory structure from SVN to GIT?

From: David Barr <hidden>

If however you have a more complex layout, you can use "git svn init", then
edit .git/config to suit your needs, then run "git svn fetch".
And by "suit your needs", I mean you can add multiple "fetch=..." lines.
In my case, I ended up having one "fetch=..." for each trunk, branch and
tag.
It was not efficient, it took 2 weeks to convert <30k revisions, ~200
branches/project, ~80 projects, but it works well enough for me.

This is why we need to breath life into the git-remote-svn effort.
We should be able to handle imports of that size in minutes.
(Cost of dumping from SVN aside.)
