Tracking upstream development with git-svn

+ == Tracking upstream development ==
+ 
+ With `git-svn` upstream development can be directly tracked in your Git repository. For example if you are in the `boinc` repository, run the following command to clone BOINC's `trunk` from upstream's Subversion repository into your Git repository:
+ {{{
+ git svn clone --trunk=trunk/boinc --prefix=upstream/ http://boinc.berkeley.edu/svn/ .
+ }}}
+ This creates a new remote branch `upstream/trunk` which contains BOINC's complete trunk. This branch can for example be used as argument for `git-buildpackage`'s  `--git-upstream-branch` option to build packages directly from trunk.
