MacPorts git-svn note

If you’re mirroring a remote SVN repository, make sure you have git-svn available. Try

which git-svn

to see if it’s there. If you’re using MacPorts, it currently does not include git-svn by default; you must install Git with the +svn variant, like so:

sudo port install git-core +svn

Otherwise you will see an error message like this:

Error occured: fatal: ambiguous argument ‘braid/svn/preload-fixtures’: unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use ’—’ to separate paths from revisions

This has been fixed. Braid now checks for the presence of git-svn before running.
