git clone with svn metadata for download

[Tim Abell]

I've put this up in case anyone wants it.

http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Git#Ready_made_clone

    Download a ready made git clone from
    http://www.timwise.co.uk/gnucash/bare-gnucash-svn.git.tgz (90 MB)
    complete with svn metadata for updating.

    This is a bare repository (only the contents of the .git folder) so
    to use it as a full copy you will need to rearrange the folder.

    wget http://www.timwise.co.uk/gnucash/bare-gnucash-svn.git.tgz
    tar -xvzf bare-gnucash-svn.git.tgz
    mkdir gnucash-svn.git
    mv bare-gnucash-svn.git gnucash-svn.git/.git
    cd gnucash-svn.git
    git checkout master
    git svn rebase
      

    these instructions need testing

Feedback welcome.
