Maybe my git-fu isn't up to par... Ok, so I am trying this:

     git clone http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git
     cd llvm.git
     git config svn-remote.svn.fetch ":refs/remotes/origin/master"
     git fetch
     git svn init https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk
     git svn rebase -l

The last command hangs for a long time, sucking up a lot of CPU cycles 
then spits out this message:

     Unable to determine upstream SVN information from working tree history

Anybody know what the problem is?
