All the branches and tags are fine, but the master/trunk branch points to the wrong directory. I reported this in Jira issue INFRA-3800 [1] and they want to fix it, but have a question regarding the svn project layout.

The scratch folder could either be located inside the trunk at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/synapse/trunk/scratch/ or as a separate folder at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/synapse/scratch/.

Jukka Zitting suggests (in INFRA-3800) that the Synapse developers fix this in svn: 
--
It's best if one of the Synapse committers does the restructuring. It should be something as simple as this: 

     svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/synapse/trunk 
     cd trunk 
     svn move java/* . 
     svn commit -m '...' 

You may then want to discuss whether to keep the scratch folder within the trunk or move it elsewhere, but the above steps are already enough to automatically solve the Git mirror problem raised in this issue.

Can one of you apply this fix?

Thanks!
