If you read the wiki page at http://wiki.freebsd.org/GitWorkflow carefully, you'll note: Known Problems There's still a bug in the converter, that does not incrementally export the svn revision to git commit id mappings to so called git "notes", instead it clobbers them always. This makes it inconvenient to go from svn revision to git commit hash or vice versa. And this is something that is and will be fixed, it's just not high on my priority list. If someone wants to help out, that would be great! Cheers, Uli
