Svn2git core dumps during processing SVN repository

[John Lawlor]

Hi Thiago,

(Sorry I tried to send this mail already but I attached a shell script and
it bounced)

I did a full re-dump of the whole SVN history. There are two things which
are different from the March conversion:

- SVN 1.8 instead of 1.7 (though I am not entirely sure what SVN version I
used in March, the default on RHEL 7 is 1.7 I think)
- I dumped the SVN history a bit differently than in March, to fix two
problems:

   - Checkin of 35GB file and subsequent deletion in the next commit. I
   fixed that by committing a empty version of the 35GB file
   - Checkin of 200,000 json files. The 200k checkin created a folder also,
   so I just created an empty folder without the 200k files in it. The folder
   gets deleted in a later commit.

I also mistakenly made a checkin to the live production SVN which I had to
fix also.

I don't think that much has changed in svn2git so the problem must be with
either the SVN version, or the way I did the SVN dump.

I also tried using 'svnadmin hotcopy' to create a copy of the repository
and then I ran the conversion against that. I got the same core dump.

Regards,
John
