I looked at svn-mirror to see how it did this, seems about right.

Now we detect that the SVN repo does not have new commits for us and exit
cleanly, removing the lockfile. With this, svnimport supports being run
on a cronjob to maintain a SVN2GIT gateway.

One "svn log" (or its equivalent) per revision adds delay and server load.
Instead, open two SVN connections -- one for the log, and one for the files.
Positive side effect: Only those log entries which actually contain data
are committed => no more empty commits.
Also, change the "-l" option to set the maximum revision to be pulled,
not the number of revisions.

Now that the leak is gone, there is by default no limit of revisions to
import. No more message about leak when the limit (given by the -l
parameter) is reached.

Fix an error when a svn revision consists only of the creation of a new tag

When copying files and/or directories from several branches in one single
revision, all these branches are used as parents of the commit.

The require statement at the top of git-svnimport seems to confuse
rpmbuild dependency generation. It uses the newer notation "v5.8.0",
and rpm ends up requiring "perl(v5.8.0)", while we would want it to
say something like "perl >= 0:5.008".
Ryan suggests old-style "require 5.008" might fix this problem, so
here it is.

Some SVN repositories that are accessible through HTTP don't like when I
retrieve files using SVN methods ("internal server error").
Therefore, I added an option to get the contents using (persistent) HTTP
directly. This also reduces round-trip time, from two or three requests
down to one.
Also corrected error handling a bit.

Actually removing the files that have been checked out of SVN,
after checking them into git of course, is a good idea...

Incremental imports skipped a revision.
Also improve interrupt safety -- ^C while writing a tag caused the tag

Add a flag to skip initial revisions: some SVN repositories have
initial setup cruft in their logs which we might want to ignore.

Due to a bug in the SVN library, path information is freed as soon as the
callback returns, even if it still refers to the data.
Workaround: Copy it. (Also fix a wrong-method-name bug while we're at it.)

As the name suggests, this script imports from SVN.
Only "normal" SVN repositories (with single trunk/, branches/, and tags/
subdrectories) are supported. Incremental imports require preserving
the file .git/svn2git.
