SVN access is done by the SVN::Perl module.
git-svnimport assumes that SVN repositories are organized into one
-"trunk" directory where the main development happens, "branch/FOO"
+"trunk" directory where the main development happens, "branches/FOO"
directories for branches, and "/tags/FOO" directories for tags.
Other subdirectories are ignored.
-l <max_rev>::
Specify a maximum revision number to pull.
++
+Formerly, this option controlled how many revisions to pull,
+due to SVN memory leaks. (These have been worked around.)

+-R <repack_each_revs>::
+ Specify how often git repository should be repacked.
++
+The default value is 1000. git-svnimport will do import in chunks of 1000
+revisions, after each chunk git repository will be repacked. To disable
+this behavior specify some big value here which is mote than number of
+revisions to import.
-P <path_from_trunk>::
Partial import of the SVN tree.
-
- By default, the whole tree on the SVN trunk (/trunk) is imported.
- '-P my/proj' will import starting only from '/trunk/my/proj'.
- This option is useful when you want to import one project from a
- svn repo which hosts multiple projects under the same trunk.
