Thanks for pointing that out. I had thought to use svn prop set manually as well, but after reviewing a number of threads on this issue, I've decided it would be safer to simply avoid merges on the git side, doing them on the svn side then using git svn rebase on the git side. I'll fix up the current fop-1_1 branch with a bit of manual rebuilding.
