The --ignore-paths option to fetch is very useful for working on a subset
of a SVN repository. For proper operation, every command that causes a
fetch (explicit or implied) must include a matching --ignore-paths option.
This patch adds a persistent svn-remote.$repo_id.ignore-paths config by
promoting Fetcher::is_path_ignored to a member function and initializing
$self->{ignore_regex} in Fetcher::new. Command line --ignore-paths is
still recognized and acts in addition to the config value.

To find the blob object name given a tree and pathname, we were
incorrectly calling "git ls-tree" with a "--" argument followed
by the pathname of the file we wanted to get.
git ls-tree <TREE> -- --dashed/path/name.c
Unlike many command-line interfaces, the "--" alone does not
symbolize the end of non-option arguments on the command-line.
ls-tree interprets the "--" as a prefix to match against, thus
the entire contents of the --dashed/* hierarchy would be

When initializing a git-svn repository from a Subversion repoository,
it is common to be interested in a path which did not exist in the
initial commit to Subversion. In a large repository, the initial fetch
may take some looking for the earliest existence of the path time while
the user receives no additional feedback. Print the highest revision
number scanned thus far to let the user know something is still

This will be useful when somebody want to checkout something partially from

Modules are interdependent, and you want it to be single repostory (to commit
to all modules simultaneously and view complete history), but do not want
branches and tags be checked out into working copy.
Other use case is excluding some large blobs.
The quirk for now is that user must specify this option every fetch/rebase;
in other case he may get extra files or "file not found" errors. It may be

The get_log() function in the Perl SVN API introduced the limit
parameter in 1.2.0. However, this got discarded in our SVN::Ra
compatibility layer when used with SVN 1.1.x. We now emulate
the limit functionality in older SVN versions by preventing the
original callback from being called if the given limit has been
reached. This emulation is less bandwidth efficient, but SVN
1.1.x is becoming rarer now.
Additionally, the --limit parameter in svn(1) uses the
aforementioned get_log() functionality change in SVN 1.2.x.
t9129 no longer depends on --limit to work and instead uses
Perl to parse out the commit message.

This is a followup to 7fc35e0e94,
(workaround a for broken symlinks in SVN).
Since broken SVN clients can commit svn:special files without
the magic "link " prefix, this can affect delta application
when we update the broken svn:special file. So now we fall
back and retry the delta application on symlinks if having
a "link " prefix fails.
Our behavior differs from svn(1) (v1.5.1) slightly:
When a svn:special file is created w/o a "link " prefix, svn
will create a regular file (mode 100644 to git) with the
contents of the blob as-is.
Our behavior is to continue creating the symlink (mode 120000
to git) with the contents of the blob as-is. While this
differs from current svn(1) behavior, this is easier and more
efficient to implement (and the correctness of the svn(1) is
debatable, since it's a workaround for a bug in the first
place).

Broken SVN clients generate empty files with the svn:special set
to '*'. This attempts to denote a symlink pointing to a file
with an empty path (""), which cannot be generated on a POSIX

file in our tree.

find_parent_branch generates branch@rev type branches when one has to
look back through SVN history to properly get the history for a branch
copied from somewhere not already being tracked by git-svn. If in the
process of fetching this history, git-svn is interrupted, then when one
fetches again, it will use whatever was last fetched as the parent
commit and fail to fetch any more history which it didn't get to before
being terminated. This is especially troubling in that different
git-svn copies of the same SVN repository can end up with different
commit sha1s, incorrectly showing the history as divergent and
precluding easy collaboration using git push and fetch.
To fix this, when we initialise the Git::SVN object $gs to search for
and perhaps fetch history, we check if there are any commits in SVN in
the range between the current revision $gs is at, and the top revision
for which we were asked to fill history. If there are commits we're
missing in that range, we continue the fetch from the current revision
to the top, properly getting all history before using it as the parent
for the branch we're trying to create.

The 'branch' subcommand incorrectly had the svn-remote to use hardcoded
as 'svn', the default remote name. This meant that branches derived
from other svn-remotes would try to use the branch and tag configuration
for the 'svn' remote, potentially copying would-be branches to the wrong
place in SVN, into the branch namespace for another project.
Fix this by using the remote name extracted from the svn info for the
specified git ref. Add a testcase for this behaviour.

Suppose you're using git-svn to work with a certain SVN repository.
Since you don't like 'git-svn fetch' to take forever, and you don't want
to accidentally interrupt it and end up corrupting your repository, you
set up a remote Git repository to mirror the SVN repository, which does
its own 'git-svn fetch' on a cronjob; now you can 'git-fetch' from the
Git mirror into your local repository, and still dcommit to SVN when you
have changes to push.
After you do this, though, git-svn will get very confused if you ever
try to do 'git-svn fetch' in your local repository again, since its
rev_map will differ from the branch's head, and it will be unable to
fetch new commits from SVN because of the metadata conflict. But all
the necessary metadata are there in the Git commit message; git-svn
already knows how to rebuild rev_map files that get blown away, by
using the metadata.
This patch teaches git-svn do a partial rebuild of the rev_map to
match the true state of the branch, if it ever is used to fetch again.
This will only work for projects not using either noMetadata or
useSvmProps configuration options; if you are using these options,
git-svn will fall back to the previous behaviour.
