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.

I broke this part with the URL minimization; since
git-svn will now try to connect to the root of
the repository and will end up writing files
there if it can...

Using the command-line client was great for prototyping and
getting something working quickly. Eventually I found time
to study the library documentation and add support for using
the libraries which are much faster and more flexible when
it comes to supporting new features.
Note that we require version 1.1 of the SVN libraries, whereas
we supported the command-line svn client down to version 1.0.

There was a bug in dcommit (and commit-diff) which caused deltas
to be generated against the latest version of the changed file
in a repository, and not the revision we are diffing (the tree)
against locally.
This bug can cause recent changes to the svn repository to be
silently clobbered by git-svn if our repository is out-of-date.
Thanks to Steven Grimm for noticing the bug.
The (few) people using the commit-diff command are now required
to use the -r/--revision argument. dcommit usage is unchanged.

Allow NO_SVN_TESTS to be defined to skip git-svn tests. These
tests are time-consuming due to SVN being slow, and even more so
if SVN Perl libraries are not available.
