The SVN repository (<a href="http://sweaglesw.org/svn/treebank/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://sweaglesw.org/svn/treebank/</a>) didn’t contain branches, so I have created branches for the two tags I found: `foo` and `packard-2015`. Note that these tags do not look very interesting and maybe they could be removed in the SVN repository. That would make the process even simpler, tracking only the trunk branch.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default">You're probably right about 'foo', but the 'packard-2015' tag points to the revision used for Woodley's thesis and IWCS 2015 paper so I don't think we should discard that one. But maybe it doesn't matter for a mirror since it still exists in the SVN repo?<br></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
We don’t have automation yet, if Woodley update its SVN, all I need to do is:<br>
<br>
git svn fetch<br>
git push --all -u origin<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default">When you do `git svn fetch`, it retrieves the commits from the remote SVN repository but doesn't incorporate them into your local tree.

Hi Michael and Stephan, any comments about the solution above? Michael is the only user in the <a href="https://github.com/delph-in" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/delph-in</a> organization?
