Here you have to work harder: The reason is that this is part of a perl 
expression (as opposed to an eval'd string), which does not have access to 
$svnrepo of the shell by which it is invoked. The original version failed if 
there were single-quotes in $svnrepo, the new version fails if it contains 
double-quotes.




This must be

	svn import -m 'import for git-svn' . \"\$svnrepo\" >/dev/null &&

to be safe. Your version would break with names with double-quotes, because 
$svnrepo would be expanded and then eval'd inside test_expect_*. This error 
recurs numerous times until the end of the patch.

May I recommend that you run the test suite in a directory named like this:

	$ mkdir \"\ \$GIT_DIR\ \'
	$ ls
	" $GIT_DIR '


I assume $path is under control of the test script, otherwise it must be 
inside the double-quotes, too.


Why is this trickery with find needed? Isn't it easier to put the whole test 
case in single-quotes instead?
