* Clarify that 'init' requires an argument
* Remove instances of 'SVN_URL' in the manpage, it's not an
environment variable.
* Refer to 'Additional Fetch Arguments' when documenting 'fetch'
* document --authors-file / -A option
Thanks to Pavel Roskin and Seth Falcon for bringing these issues
to my attention.

Output a big warning if somebody actually has a pre-1.0 version
of svn that doesn't support it.
Thanks to Yann Dirson for reminding me it still existed
and attempting to re-enable it :)
I think I subconciously removed support for it earlier...

'svn info' doesn't work with URLs in svn <= 1.1. Now we
only run svn info in local directories.
As a side effect, this should also work better for 'init' off
directories that are no longer in the latest revision of the
repository.
svn checkout -r<revision> arguments are fixed.
Newer versions of svn (1.2.x) seem to need URL@REV as well as
-rREV to checkout a particular revision...
Add an example in the manpage of how to track directory that has
been moved since its initial revision.
A huge thanks to Yann Dirson for the bug reporting and testing
my original patch. Thanks also to Junio C Hamano for suggesting
a safer way to use git-rev-parse.

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).

As a rule, interface branches to different SCMs should never be modified
directly by the user. They are used exclusively for talking to the
foreign SCM.

Allow 'from..to' notation from the command line.
More liberal sha1 parsing when reading from stdin no longer requires the
sha1 to be the first character, so a leading 'commit ' string is OK.
