Hello,
I am very interested in a functionality like this.

In my limited knowledge I wonder if that would confuse shell scripts.

Having the user specify replacements leads to diversion which would not be
desired. Consider the case where two git users clone a svn repo and later
pull from each other. Different replacements would cause confusion in this
case. That can of course be remedied by having the same replacements but
then configuration is not needed.
Is there anybody working on this feature at the moment? Can I pull from
somewhere? I am hard pressed for that feature but my ability to contribute
is only in testing and reporting bugs.
