git-svn: trailing slash in prefix is mandatory with --branches/-b
Make clear in the documentation that when using --branches/-b and --prefix with 'init', the prefix must include a trailing slash. This matches the actual behavior of git-svn, e.g.: $ git svn init -Ttrunk -treleases -bbranches --prefix xxx \ http://svn.sacredchao.net/svn/quodlibet/ --prefix='xxx' must have a trailing slash '/' $ This was noticed by R. Vanicat and reported through http://bugs.debian.org/429443 Signed-off-by: Gerrit Pape <pape@smarden.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
