  Priority:  Normal    |  Milestone:
 Component:  ports     |    Version:  2.2.0
Resolution:            |   Keywords:  svn
      Port:  git-core  |

Comment (by jimjag@…):

 This is due to git-svn not being compatible with subversion 1.8.x yet (or
 the perl-bindings for it). I proposed creating a subversion1.7 port and
 making git-core +svn dependent on that. In the meantime, downgrading to
 svn 1.7 is required.

 Replying to [ticket:39986 ram@…]:
 > Since subversion was updated to version 1.8.x git-svn had not been
 working correctly, when trying to clone a new repo it fails with:
