Also, one mustn't use Subversion's ability to retroactively edit
commit messages. (Guess what we tend to do from time to time where I
work.)
What'd really be needed to get all of the corner cases right, I think,
is a single import point that everyone else pulls from. The patch that
started this thread would help that scenario, since it makes it
possible to pull from such a central import point, and then run the
dcommit locally. (There's still the problem that dcommit will do a
local import if necessary -- that would have to be fixed as well.
Maybe simply teach git-svn to always try to pull from a given git
repository before hitting the real svn repo.)
