Would it really matter if you loose history? That's what I'd go for, 
then just keep gsoc-kurt around for a year just in case.

Failing everything else, it should be possible to export every relevant 
changeset to file and reimport them again into a new repository with a 
smallish shell script. You likely need to be doing stuff like that 
anyway in order to submit your code to Google, right? (At least if you 
want to submit changes to the existing files.)
