Howdy,

First of all, thanks for github, it rocks.

Lately I have been keeping a git mirror of the Parrot svn repo, and
people have asked me to push all the svn branches to github as well.
It seems that github will accept branches with a / just fine (as it
should), but the web interface borks.

(arkham)(~/git/parrot upstream )$ git push github svn/nci
Counting objects: 213, done.
Delta compression using up to 2 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (76/76), done.
Writing objects: 100% (175/175), 29.29 KiB, done.
Total 175 (delta 127), reused 139 (delta 91)
To [email protected]:leto/parrot.git
 * [new branch]      svn/nci -> svn/nci

If I then go to my github dashboard, it tells me that a new branch
svn/nci has been created, but then the link

http://github.com/leto/parrot/tree/svn/nci

is a 404.

I even tried

http://github.com/leto/parrot/tree/svn%2Fnci

but that didn't fly either.

I could get around this by creating a local tracking branch for every
svn branch and not use a forward slash, but since there are currently
441 branches (including tags), this seems like a suboptimal solution.

Is this a known issue and/or is there another workaround? The data is
there, it is just that no one can see it via the web interface.

Thanks a bunch!

Cheers,
