I've been following the steps on this post: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79165/how-to-migrate-svn-repository-with-history-to-a-new-git-repository?noredirect=1&amp;lq=1">How to migrate SVN repository with history to a new Git repository?</a></p>
  
  <p>More specifically, <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/79188/365237">this answer</a> (seemed like the simplest). The problem is whenever I try and fetch from my svn repo I keep getting the :</p>
  
  <p><em>Can't create session: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'file:///mypathtorepo'</em> </p>
  
  <p>My repo is currently sitting on my local computer which is why I'm using the 'file:///' directory path. I've also tried 'svn://localhost/mypathtorepo' to no avail. How do I fix this? </p>
