I've never seen this one before. I'm creating a development on a new Mac by cloning several svn repositories to local git repositories. Several pulled just fine, but one is being stubborn. They're all being pulled from the same svn server and there are no differences that I know of. I've tried to clone this one particular repository 4 times now and it's always the same result:
r3378 = 0b759d82e55df2e54fdbcb74859e56cc4f40eb5c (svn/trunk)

None of the other output appears out of the ordinary or seems to indicate any kind of problem; the process just aborts. If I do a git br -r, not all of my branches appear (though it looks like my trunk and some of the branches import fine).
Has anyone ever seen this before? I need to get this repository cloned to be productive at home, but I need at least one of them maintenance branches that isn't being pulled. FWIW, the command I'm running is:
me@mine [project-root] $ git svn clone https://svn.myserver.com/myproject my-project --trunk=trunk --branches=branches/*/* --prefix=svn/
I'm running git 1.6.3.3 and svn 1.4.4, both installed via MacPorts. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
UPDATE: I'm seeing the same problem on my Linux machine (Ubuntu 8.10) running git 1.6.3.2 and Svn 1.5.1.
UPDATE: This may have something to do with the SSL location. If I do a git clone using the internal, non-SSL URI of the repository things seem to shake out fine. That means more use of VPN than I'd like, but at least it will work.
