title: What happens when you use git svn clone without any options?
body: <p>The documentation on <a href="https://git-scm.com/docs/git-svn" rel="nofollow noreferrer">git-svn</a> states that you can either provide the <code>-s</code> flag to indicate that your Subversion repository uses the standard layout (<code>trunk</code>, <code>branches</code>, <code>tags</code>), or that you can specify <code>-T</code>, <code>-b</code>, and <code>-t</code> to customize those paths.</p>
  
  <p>What happens if I omit all of those flags, and just say</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ git svn clone &lt;url&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>?</p>
  
  <p>I'm somewhat afraid to simply try it out, because I don't want to do any harm to the Subversion repository accidentally.</p>
  
  <p>Any help?</p>
