Created attachment 194727 [details] patch If you try to use the .gitauthors file with an empty repository, you get: $ git svn fetch --authors-file ~/work/.gitauthors fatal: name consists only of disallowed characters: 32768 at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/Git/SVN/Ra.pm line 476. because the first commit is from cvs2svn, and it does not have a name.
Then, r2276 fails because davidg does not have a name.
I will go through the whole `git svn fetch` to catch all bad entries. It might take a few days to make it through all ~ 473548 commits.
Hmmm... I am seeing `git svn fetch` and `git log` skip over r2276 and r2277 without any error. See the output of those two commands. `svn log` does seem to show them as "special" commits, one a merge and one an artefact of the cvs to svn conversion. I mention this just out of curiosity and for posterity. I will still add David Greenman's name for his second account. % git svn fetch --authors-file /usr/ports/.gitauthors ... r2274 = 03a1f5a8c920d6581a5c005e3fd5adbef05f3087 (refs/remotes/origin/trunk) M emulators/wine/Makefile M emulators/wine-devel/Makefile r2275 = a3ce667cec51863693e509c3f18bf499281296e5 (refs/remotes/origin/trunk) M net/samba/Makefile M net/samba/distinfo M net/samba/files/patch-aa M net/samba/pkg-plist M net/samba-devel/Makefile M net/samba-devel/distinfo M net/samba-devel/files/patch-aa M net/samba-devel/pkg-plist M net/samba3/Makefile M net/samba3/distinfo M net/samba3/files/patch-aa M net/samba3/pkg-plist r2278 = a44da3ab8940963565fb271346ee697a1843bf6e (refs/remotes/origin/trunk) M net/slirp/Makefile r2279 = c648afe654130dd257a664bd9d2316009973177e (refs/remotes/origin/trunk) M shells/zsh/pkg-plist M shells/zsh-devel/pkg-plist ... % git -C /usr/ports log --reverse ... commit 08a28c096b7038b312665e00818b564bf14a7607 Author: Jeffrey Hsu <hsu@FreeBSD.org> Date: Thu Oct 5 20:50:32 1995 +0000 Update to Wine1003.

Oh, yes, my svn-remote is much more comprehensive than the default one: [svn-remote "svn"] rewriteRoot = https://svn.freebsd.org/ports url = svn+ssh://repo.freebsd.org/ports pushurl = svn+ssh://repo.freebsd.org/ports fetch = head:refs/remotes/origin/trunk fetch = svnadmin:refs/remotes/origin/svnadmin branches = branches/*:refs/remotes/origin/* tags = tags/*:refs/remotes/origin/tags/*
I think the idea is that name are required
