I can't get the right use of the --ignore-paths too after dozen of
attempt.
The strategy i used is the same as n8gray. just create another folder
for the project's valid branches only.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the reply.  I ended up creating a new folder with a
different name and copying the good branches into it, then I deleted
the old folder.  So I ended up with:

/branches/myProject-python-client/branchX-failed
/branches/myProject-python-client/branchX
/branches/myProject-server/server-branch

If the new folder had the same name as the old folder git would pick
up the history of the server-branch, even if the actual folder was
totally new and never had held that branch.  So that myProject-client
name is forever tainted, but oh well.  At least I've got things on
stable ground again.

Cheers,
-n8

Hi Nathan,

Yeah, I often get problems with --ignore-paths too. Sometimes I wonder if it 
works at all.

Did you consider limiting the revisions included in the clone? You can pass 
in a revision range to git-svn fetch like this:  -r12033:HEAD
