Radu,

Will see what I can do. There was however a very mean and redundant
duplication of code kind of like /trunk/browsermap/trunk.

Do you really say Git insists on this bad behavior or could the mirror be
better structured?[?]
/repos/asf/incubator/devicemap*/trunk/browsermap/trunk*
shows that redundancy.

Could the Git pull script (we don't have control over that from the SVN
side) be fixed to avoid this redundancy?
And simply point to /repos/asf/incubator/devicemap*/trunk/browsermap*
without the extra /trunk?

That should fix the sync problem.

Werner
