on the matter.

I have tried this. BLFS repository is kinda "damaged" and git-svn bridge
would fail to update. I haven't investigated the right reason since I
got tired after waiting for several hours to create git-svn clone (7+
hours).


Perhaps Pierre could input on that: iirc/aiui Pierre uses git/svn 'ongoingly'
for working with lfs &/or blfs.
Actually, importing the BFLS svn repository to git svn takes a long time, but then it is easy to work with, *as long as no new branch is created in the svn repository*. If a new branch is created, then the branch tracking machinery of "git svn fetch" restarts the import process at revision 1... Since somebody has recently created a lot of new branches in BLFS svn :-), it was really to long to update the git svn, and I now use a traditional svn sandbox (+ quilt). Even if no branch is created, a tag has the same effect of restarting the import process. Well, with a 6 month schedule, that would be doable. Now, something I have never tried, is to export the git svn repo.
