From 9e77353e0ea6e9e6d88ad1943570afb526d54a16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Jan=20Kr=C3=BCger?= Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 18:45:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: git-svn: fix example for centralized SVN clone MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The example that tells users how to centralize the effort of the initial git svn clone operation doesn't work properly. It uses rebase but that only works if HEAD exists. This adds one extra command to create a somewhat sensible HEAD that should work in all cases.
