Hmmm, in that case perhaps we should instead just ignore changed
history? Anyone collaborating on history can clone the repository
they're collaborating from, including all git-remote-svn meta-data. It
seems nearly impossible to guarantee that two people that clone the
same repository at different times get the same git hashes (unless we
stub out all mutable data, which is ugly and a pita).
