Is it possible to create and track new branches (or tags) using git-svn?
I know how to track existing branches, but new ones?
Some context. I'm tracking a CVS repository doing update from time to
time on the master branch (using simply rsync and git-svn dcommit). Now
I want to add a new tag for updates on the master. Currently I'm using
svn copy. I'd like to do this directly from Git.
Thanks.

I don't think there's a way to do this. You can create branches in
git that *aren't* tracked in svn, of course, if you want to do that.
And creating branches in svn is a single command, even if you don't
have an svn checkout:
svn cp $SVN/trunk $SVN/branches/whatever
So it seems unnecessary to duplicate this feature in git.
Have fun,
Avery

That's what I'm doing as I said in my message.

Well it would be quite handy to work on Git directly (eventually
off-line) and doing the final "git svn dcommit" to update the subversion
repository and creating the branches if necessary.
