Subject: git-svn: handle merge-base failures
X-Git-Tag: v1.7.0-rc0~11^2~7
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=41c01693ac13846c73a31c8f5c3a60206e1643be;p=git.git

git-svn: handle merge-base failures

Change git-svn to warn and continue when merge-base fails while processing svn
merge tickets.

merge-base can fail when a partial branch is created and merged back to trunk
in svn, because it cannot find a common ancestor between the partial branch and
trunk.
