'git svn' <command> [options] [arguments]
DESCRIPTION
affecting the working tree; and the 'rebase' command will be
able to update the working tree with the latest changes.
+--preserve-empty-dirs;;
+ Create a placeholder file in the local Git repository for each
+ empty directory fetched from Subversion. This includes directories
+ that become empty by removing all entries in the Subversion
+ repository (but not the directory itself). The placeholder files
+ are also tracked and removed when no longer necessary.
+
+--placeholder-filename=<filename>;;
+ Set the name of placeholder files created by --preserve-empty-dirs.
+ Default: ".gitignore"
+
'rebase'::
This fetches revisions from the SVN parent of the current HEAD
and rebases the current (uncommitted to SVN) work against it.
Add the given merge information during the dcommit
(e.g. `--mergeinfo="/branches/foo:1-10"`). All svn server versions can
store this information (as a property), and svn clients starting from
- version 1.5 can make use of it. 'git svn' currently does not use it
- and does not set it automatically.
+ version 1.5 can make use of it. To specify merge information from multiple
+ branches, use a single space character between the branches
+ (`--mergeinfo="/branches/foo:1-10 /branches/bar:3,5-6,8"`)
++
+[verse]
+config key: svn.pushmergeinfo
++
+This option will cause git-svn to attempt to automatically populate the
+svn:mergeinfo property in the SVN repository when possible. Currently, this can
+only be done when dcommitting non-fast-forward merges where all parents but the
+first have already been pushed into SVN.
'branch'::
Create a branch in the SVN repository.
