I would be happy to help, but I don't speak fluent perl. I had real trouble introducing a global variable, when patching 'git-svn' for root commit.

I'm really not excited about having even more shell scripts in git.

The first name for this scripts was 'git-svndumb'. They don't do anything themselves. They just call 'git-svn'. It works like decoupling in object-oriented design. Old UNIX philosophy of 'big number of small tools'.

If you decide to incorporate then in 'git-svn', you'll need to contaminate it with knowledge of 'svndumb'. I am afraid, you'll need to peruse the whole file, putting 'if's here and there.

But, it doesn't really matter, which you way you go. I would be happy just to see this functionality in some future release of git.
