Working with git-svn I noticed that new branched didn’t show up when I did the usual git svn rebase to get the remote changes. After a bit of searching and not coming up with much, I worked out that git svn fetch pulls in the changes for the whole module, not just the current branch. After running that command, the new branches, tags etc. show up.
Hope this helps someone…

Thanks! That’s exactly what I was looking for!
