I have tried the following :

git svn init https://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wink/trunk/
  --branches https://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wink/sandbox/
 --branches https://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wink/branches/
--tags https://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wink/tags/
java-wink
cd java-wink
git svn fetch --revision 782707

I think that one of the issue is that sandbox was created in a later
revision and i get some issues when trying fetch from the initial
revision.... without the revision was taking little longer so I
canceled.... This would probably get easier once sanbox get moved to
trunk.
