Subject: Git SVN fetch failing on large commit
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 01:24:00 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]

Hi,
I'm trying to import an SVN repository and I'm running into trouble on a huge
SVN revision.
One of the revisions in SVN has a 1.25 GB file. When the git svn fetch process
gets to this revision, it crashed with the following message:
fatal: Out of memory, malloc failed
hash-object -w --stdin-paths: command returned error: 128
error closing pipe: Bad file descriptor at /usr/local/libexec/git-core//git-svn
line 0
error closing pipe: Bad file descriptor at /usr/local/libexec/git-core//git-svn
line 0
This is running on a machine with 3 GB of memory (2.5 GB free before starting
git svn), Git 1.6.1, Git-svn 1.6.1(svn 1.5.1)
Help would be greatly appreciated.
