Will fix.

Okay.

I wouldn't mind dropping `testsvn`, seeing as there are fewer and fewer
users of `git svn` (and even those are unlikely to switch to `testsvn`,
should that ever become production-ready).

Having said that, this is an orthogonal issue to the purpose of this patch
series. And I would really like to get this patch series into a shape that
can be merged down to `next` soon.

Thank you,
