It's fully restartable.  Not only that but it uses transaction
protection to make sure that its internal state doesn't get corrupted
when performing the various options.

No, it's server only.  I think I did get around to implementing not having
to go through all the stages for branches you didn't care to import.  It's
difficult though, the stage which correlates those thousands of 'integrate'
records is never going to be fast.  Be prepared to tune your postgres - add
lots of shared_buffers and sort memory if your project is as large as Perl.
