git svn error after change the svn repo address

Question

I cloned a repo using git svn -s clone first from

svn+ssh://savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/elog

But the repo laterly has been changed to

svn+ssh://[email protected]/repos/meg/elog

Then I edit the .git/config file, just change the line below [remote-svn "svn"]. Then git svn fetch works fine, but any other svn commands, such as svn info, svn rebase, fail in the error:

Unable to determine upstream SVN information from working tree history

I searched stack overflow, someone got the same error before, but the answer does not work for me. What should I do after changing the svn-repo address?

Platform: archlinux; git: 1.7.7.3; svn: 1.6.17

Answer 1

I came here via looking for revmap issues when using this solution but it gets the rebasing / fetching working:

http://honk.sigxcpu.org/con/Using_git_svn_when_upstream_moves_the_subversion_repository.html

git config svn-remote.svn.url newUrl
git config svn-remote.svn.rewriteRoot originalUrl
git svn rebase

revmaps don't seem to be used correctly for merges, not sure if tags will work either yet...
