That's a lousy commit message. A version committed later (that
eventually found its way to David's repository) explains:
This way, a person can use
svnadmin dump $path |
svn-fe |
git fast-import --relative-marks --export-marks=svn-revs
to get a list of what commit corresponds to each svn revision (plus
some irrelevant blob names) in .git/info/fast-import/svn-revs.
In other words, this is the first half of a two-way mapping between
svn and git commit names.
It should be possible to build a mapping the other way like so:
awk '
BEGIN {
print "commit refs/notes/svn-id";
printf "committer ";
system("git var GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT");
print "data <<EOT";
print "Automatically generated commits-to-revs mapping.";
print "EOT";
}
{
num = 0 + substr($1, 2);
commitname = $2;
if (num < 1024 * 1024 * 1024) {
print "N inline " commitname
print "data <<EOT";
print "r" num;
print "EOT";
}
}
' .git/info/fast-import/svn-revs |
git fast-import
