No, the OP has it figured out, so it's just you and a a few others who
may have missed the last message in the thread.

The problem was a change in the importation of svn into git with the
latest update to git on 12/28. It required a modification of the git
configuration...otherwise the import failed. I am not git-aware, so I
suggest reading the final message from Oliver sent on 1/1 at 18:24 -8.

He points out the thread on the git list that explained the work-around:
