specified, the prefix must include a trailing slash.
Setting a prefix is useful if you wish to track multiple
projects that share a common repository.
+--ignore-paths=<regex>;;
+ When passed to 'init' or 'clone' this regular expression will
+ be preserved as a config key. See 'fetch' for a description
+ of '--ignore-paths'.
'fetch'::
Fetch unfetched revisions from the Subversion remote we are
.git/config file may be specified as an optional command-line
argument.
+--localtime;;
+ Store Git commit times in the local timezone instead of UTC. This
+ makes 'git-log' (even without --date=local) show the same times
+ that `svn log` would in the local timezone.
+
+--parent;;
+ Fetch only from the SVN parent of the current HEAD.
+
+This doesn't interfere with interoperating with the Subversion
+repository you cloned from, but if you wish for your local Git
+repository to be able to interoperate with someone else's local Git
+repository, either don't use this option or you should both use it in
+the same local timezone.
+
+--ignore-paths=<regex>;;
+ This allows one to specify a Perl regular expression that will
+ cause skipping of all matching paths from checkout from SVN.
+ The '--ignore-paths' option should match for every 'fetch'
+ (including automatic fetches due to 'clone', 'dcommit',
+ 'rebase', etc) on a given repository.
+
+config key: svn-remote.<name>.ignore-paths
+
+ If the ignore-paths config key is set and the command
+ line option is also given, both regular expressions
+ will be used.
+
+Examples:
+
+ --ignore-paths="^doc" - skip "doc*" directory for every
+ fetch.
+
+ --ignore-paths="^[^/]+/(?:branches|tags)" - skip
+ "branches" and "tags" of first level directories.
+
'clone'::
Runs 'init' and 'fetch'. It will automatically create a
directory based on the basename of the URL passed to it;
reused if a user is later given access to an alternate transport
method (e.g. `svn+ssh://` or `https://`) for commit.
+config key: svn-remote.<name>.commiturl
+
+config key: svn.commiturl (overwrites all svn-remote.<name>.commiturl options)
+
Using this option for any other purpose (don't ask)
is very strongly discouraged.

+'branch'::
+ Create a branch in the SVN repository.
+
+-m;;
+--message;;
+ Allows to specify the commit message.
+
+-t;;
+--tag;;
+ Create a tag by using the tags_subdir instead of the branches_subdir
+ specified during git svn init.
+
+'tag'::
+ Create a tag in the SVN repository. This is a shorthand for
+ 'branch -t'.
+
'log'::
This should make it easy to look up svn log messages when svn
users refer to -r/--revision numbers.
