I don't know enough to say what the cherry-pick warnings mean, but I asked a colleague to take a look. He did a massive svn to git conversion of a large number of mixed language projects that dated all the way to RCS, so it was a major lift. For us it took weeks of time over months to get it right, but we don't have that kind of time. The one issue I did see right away is that the old tags all get turned into a stubby branches, which we worked around in our conversion, but I asked and it's apparently not trivial to fix, so probably not worth it here unless others care strongly. > Please let me know if you see any issues.

Eyeballing it looks sound, but I think we need to do some selective "make dist"s on the tags and do some file comparisons, aside from the autotools files that will be different by definition. To save some time, I'm willing to check a couple of the 3.2 tags if others might take some older ones. -- Scott
