This happened roughly around the time when Anton added the other branches, but I'm not sure if that was the cause or not.  The symptom is that the "git svn rebase -l" command does nothing except say that the master branch is already up to date, and "git svn dcommit" complains that files are out of date.  In both cases, "git svn rebase" (without "-l") solves the problem, but without using the GIT mirror, so it's slow.

You should be able to get rid of this by calling:

git config svn-remote.svn.fetch ':refs/remotes/origin/master'

Now the default svn branch points to refs/remotes/origin/master instead 
of refs/remotes/git-svn and everything should work automatically.
Let me know if there are any problems with this approach.
