Concretely: when I did a comparison of the tip of trunk against master
from a reposurgeon conversion on 29 November, there were 1421 differences
(files or directories only present in one of SVN or git or with different
contents). As of today with the SVN dump reader rewrite, this is down to
just two differences (plus two empty directories present in SVN as git
doesn't represent empty directories), and we understand exactly where the
problem arises with a trunk deletion and recreation and what's odd about
that particular trunk deletion and recreation. All the deleted tags and
branches are now placed neatly in refs/deleted/; we no longer have any
problems with deleted tags or branches wrongly appearing in the main tag
and branch namespaces; all the mess with deleted branches appearing in the
reposurgeon-generated "root" branch has gone, everything there now appears
to relate to commits that genuinely and correctly do not go in any branch
or tag (changes to the hooks directory, branches wrongly created at top
level, etc.). Almost all the branches that previously weren't created in
git by reposurgeon because they were not changed in SVN after branch
creation are now properly present in the conversion to git.
