git-svn: set svn.authorsfile earlier when cloning

alexmv · Eric Wong · commit f58415096632 · 2009-12-08T20:39:58.000-08:00
If a clone errors out because of a missing author, or user interrupt,
this allows `git svn fetch` to resume seamlessly, rather than forcing
the user to re-provide the path to the authors file.
