Problem with svn to git migration sync rebase

[rannisit]

Hello,

I am migrating a codebase from SVN to GIt to be hosted on bitbucket.

I am following the instructions on 

https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/migrating-overview

I can generate a git repository from the SVN repository and publish to a private repo on Bitbucket.

However,  when I want to to the "Synchronize" part of the instructions to get the git repo up-to-date with recent changes to the SVN repo I am having trouble.

When I run "git svn fetch" recent changes are noticed and assigned git commit hashes.

The problem is that when I run

"java -Dfile.encoding=utf-8 -jar ~/svn-migration-scripts.jar sync-rebase"

The new commits are not added to the git log and my working directory is still clean  -so I can not add, commit and push the changes to my remote origin.

Does anyone know what can be the reason for this and have suggestions for solutions?
