If you replace this:

> perl /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/examples/git-svnimport.perl $R

with:

git svn init -T trunk -t tags $R
git svn fetch
git log tags/mytag

you get a log that doesn't include "commit b".  (And it does include the
tag commit, as svn does.)  tags/mytag is a branch, visibile via "git
branch -r", instead of a tag.  I'm not fluent enough in git svn to know
if this is a bug or a feature.

According to git logs (8cb070a4, fee9832a), git-svnimport.perl hasn't
been maintained in a while, presumably because git svn provides a
superset of its functionality.
