Experiments with Subversion (my version is 1.4.2) show that it is not necessary to call 'svn import' before the first commit. Contrarily to the Subversion documentation, first commit may be done even when Subversion repository is at revision 0. This allow export the whole git branch to a Subversion repo using only 'git-svn commit-diff'. Before this patch, however, 'git-svn' had no means to operate on root commits.
