svn: "svn up" fails if git repo has submodules

boutell opened this issue · 1 comments

If a git submodule is present (there is a .gitmodules file) in a git repository, svn access to that repository works fine for initial checkout, but "svn up" reports it has fetched the new commit and... nothin'. It's present in the .svn folder but none of the new changes show up in the working directory.

If I remove the git submodule from the git repository and try again... everything works great.

To be clear, the entire "main" repository that happens to have at least one submodule in it exhibits this problem. Not just the folder that comes from a git submodule.
