I ended up using GIT_SVN_ID far more than I ever thought I
would. Typing less is good.

If it does change, we're screwed anyways as SVN will refuse to
commit or update. We also never access more than one SVN
repository per-invocation, so we can store it as a global, too.

In a new repository, the initial fetch creates a master branch
if one does not exist so HEAD has something to point to.
It now creates a master at the end of the initial fetch run,
pointing to the latest revision. Previously it pointed to the
first revision imported, which is generally less useful.

Syntax is compatible with git-svnimport and git-cvsimport:
normalperson = Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
If this option is specified and git-svn encounters an SVN
committer name that it cannot parse, it git-svn will abort.

We regenerate and use git-svn-id: whenever we fetch or otherwise
commit to remotes/git-svn. We don't actually know what revision
number we'll commit to SVN at commit time, so this is useless.
It won't throw off things like 'rebuild', though, which knows to
only use the last instance of git-svn-id: in a log message

* Fixed manually-edited commit messages not going to
remotes/git-svn on sequential commits after the sequential
commit optimization.
* format help correctly after adding 'show-ignore'
* sha1_short regexp matches down to 4 hex characters
(from git-rev-parse --short documentation)
* Print the first line of the commit message when we commit to
SVN next to the sha1.
* Document 'T' (type change) in the comments

I've said I don't like branches in Subversion, and I still don't.
This is a bit more flexible, though, as the argument for -b is any
arbitrary git head/tag reference.
This makes some things easier:
* Importing git history into a brand new SVN branch.
* Tracking multiple SVN branches via GIT_SVN_ID, even from multiple
repositories.
* Adding tags from SVN (still need to use GIT_SVN_ID, though).
* Even merge tracking is supported, if and only the heads end up with
100% equivalent tree objects. This is more stricter but more robust
and foolproof than parsing commit messages, imho.

After reading a lengthy discussion on the list, I've come to the
conclusion that creating a 'remotes' directory in refs isn't
such a bad idea.
You can still branch from it by specifying remotes/git-svn (not
needing the leading 'refs/'), and the documentation has been
updated to reflect that.
The 'git-svn' part of the ref can of course be set to whatever
you want by using the GIT_SVN_ID environment variable, as
before.
I'm using refs/remotes/git-svn, and not going with something
like refs/remotes/git-svn/HEAD as it's redundant for Subversion
where there's zero distinction between branches and directories.
Run git-svn rebuild --upgrade to upgrade your repository to use
the new head. git-svn-HEAD must be manually deleted for safety
reasons.
Side note: if you ever (and I hope you never) want to run
git-update-refs on a 'remotes/' ref, make sure you have the
'refs/' prefix as you don't want to be clobbering your
'remotes/' in $GIT_DIR (where remote URLs are stored).

Avoid running 'svn up' to a previous revision if we know the
revision we just committed is the first descendant of the
revision we came from.
This reduces the time to do a series of commits by about 25%.
