For tracking branches and tags, git-svn prefers to connect
to the root of the repository or at least the level that
houses branches and tags as well as trunk. However, users
that are accustomed to tracking a single directory have
no use for this feature.
As pointed out by Junio, users may not have permissions to
connect to connect to a higher-level path in the repository.
While the current minimize_url() function detects lack of
permissions to certain paths _after_ successful logins, it
cannot effectively determine if it is trying to access a
login-only portion of a repo when the user expects to
connect to a part where anonymous access is allowed.
For people used to the git-svnimport switches of
--trunk, --tags, --branches, they'll already pass the
repository root (or root+subdirectory), so minimize URL
isn't of too much use to them, either.
For people *not* used to git-svnimport, git-svn also
supports:
git svn init --minimize-url \
--trunk http://repository-root/foo/trunk \
--branches http://repository-root/foo/branches \
--tags http://repository-root/foo/tags
And this is where the new --minimize-url command-line switch
comes in to allow for this behavior to continue working.
Some parts of SVN always seem to use it, even if the SVN::Ra
object we're using is no longer used and we've created a new one
in its place. It's also true that only one SVN::Ra connection
can exist at once... Using SVN::Pool->new_default when the
SVN::Ra object is created doesn't seem to help very much,
either...
Hopefully this fixes all segfault problems users have been
experiencing over the past few months.

This patch was originally intended to make the Perl GC more
sensitive to the SVN::Pool objects and not accidentally clean
them up when they shouldn't be (causing segfaults). That didn't
work, but this patch makes the code a bit cleaner regardless
Put our caches for get_dir and check_path calls directly into
the SVN::Ra object so they auto-expire when it is destroyed.
dirents returned by get_dir() no longer needs the pool object
stored persistently along with the cache data, as they'll be
converted to native Perl hash references.
Since calling rev_proplist repeatedly per-revision is no longer
needed in git-svn, we do not cache calls to it.

We no longer store usernames in URLs stored in git-svn-id lines
for dcommit, so we shouldn't rely on those URLs when connecting
to the remote repository to commit.
git-svn dcommit exports commits to Subversion, then imports them back
to git again, and last but not least rebases or resets HEAD to the
last of the new commits. I guess this rebasing is convenient when
using just git, but when the commits to be exported are managed by
StGIT, it's really annoying. So add an option to disable this
behavior. And document it, too!

After reading the leading contents from a symlink data obtained
from subversion, which we expect to begin with 'link ', the code
forked to hash the remainder (which should match readlink()
result) using git-hash-objects, by redirecting its STDIN from
the filehandle we read that 'link ' from. This was Ok with Perl
on modern Linux, but on Mac OS, the read in the parent process
slurped more than we asked for in stdio buffer, and the child
did not correctly see the "remainder".
This attempts to fix the issue by using lower level sysseek and
sysread instead of seek and read to bypass the stdio buffer.

svm:mirror is not useful at all for us. Parts of the old unit
test were broken and based on my misunderstanding of the
svm:mirror property.
When we read svm:source; make sure we correctly handle the '!'
in it: it is used to separate the path of the repository root
from the virtual path within the repository. We don't need
to make that distinction, honestly!
We also ensure that subdirectories are also mirrored with the
correct URL if we're using useSvmProps.
We have a new test that uses dumped repo that was really
created using SVN::Mirror to avoid ambiguities and
mis-understandings about the svm: properties.
Note: trailing whitespace in the svm.dump file is unfortunately
a reality and required by SVN; so please ignore it when applying
this patch.
Also, ensure that the -R/--remote/--svn-remote flag is always
in effect if explicitly passed via the command-line. This
allows us to track logically different mirrors sharing the
same URL (probably common with SVN::Mirror/SVK users).

This works similarly to 'svn update' or 'git pull' except that
it preserves linear history with 'git rebase' instead of 'git

While we're at it, put the working_head_info() logic
into its own function and allow --fetch-all/--all for
dcommit and rebase (which will fetch all refs in the
current [svn-remote] instead of just the working one).

removed as it conflicts with the non-svn 'git fetch'
