+A note when running git fast-export - you want to make sure and checkout master
+before doing the export - I accidentally did so while in a detached HEAD
+state, and ended up with a HEAD branch in the conversion (which completely
+messed up gitk).
+
+cd brlcad && git checkout master
+git fast-export --all --show-original-ids > ../brlcad.fi
