You must escape forward slashes.
--l <max_num_changes>::
- Limit the number of SVN changesets we pull before quitting.
- This option is necessary because the SVN library has serious memory
- leaks; the recommended value for nontrivial imports is 100.
+-l <max_rev>::
+ Specify a maximum revision number to pull.
- git-svnimport will still exit with a zero exit code. You can check
- the size of the file ".git/svn2git" to determine whether to call
- the importer again.
+ Formerly, this option controlled how many revisions to pull, due to
+ SVN memory leaks. (These have been worked around.)
