GIT to SVN Migration Error

Hey Anil,

There's a pretty thorough guide about how to get and use svn2git here:
https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/MoveToGit/UsingSvn2Git but the major
points are a) you need the subversion repository locally on your hard
drive, not just an svn checkout, but the actual svn repository files from
the server. b) You write rules about what belongs where in git if any paths
need splitting or stuff belongs in different git repositories. If you're
just migrating one project directly from one svn repo to one git repo it's
pretty straightforward.

I haven't used svn2git in years, but those are the basics from what I
remember.

Hope that helps,
Jeremy
