But the following may shed light on why there is no git-svn-id anywhere:
IIRC, this is how my current repository came to be (from the very
beginning):
1.) Way back when, before I even started on the project, it started life
as a CVS repository
2.) Was converted from CVS -> SVN in early '05 (pre-git)
3.) I converted from SVN->git in Nov/Dec '05 (using git-svnimport. I'm
not sure git-svn was available at the time.)
4.) The svn repository is still around, and I need to interoperate with
the svn repository on occasion. I read about the new (at the time)
'git-svn', and decided to give it a try.
5.) I start with my pre-existing git repository, running:
git svn init <url>
git svn fetch
git checkout -b master svn
git rebase remotes/git-svn
I need to work on being more clear; sorry about that. Here's what I did
with my 'dummy' repository
1. create a new (empty) svn repository
2. imported it into a new git repository using git-svn
3. added a few files that were just sitting in $HOME, then modified them,
removed some, added others, etc. (using both git-svn and subversion)
4. verified everything was working as I expected it to. (and if not,
figure out why I was wrong).
My 'dummy' repo was imported using git-svn.
My 'real' repo was imported using git-svnimport.
Having not read any of the code, I'm just taking a wild guess; but is it
reasonable to say that since the repository was originally imported to git
using git-svnimport (rather than git-svn), git-svn doesn't have some of
the data it needs to push to the remote svn repo?
Would it be reasonable to use git-svn to import the SVN repository into a
new git repo, and then rebase from the old git-svnimport'ed repo into the
new git-svn imported one? (did that even make sense?!?)
