Albeit this seems very easy, it will also not be a very good conversion. To make our repo convert nicely you have to use some grafting to connect branches/tags correctly together, and also inject proper git tags where subversion tags are used. Furtunately I have already done that work. > For the rest of the jobs, they require > more time, but I believe after the conversion it will be easier to > maintain since almost everything is under GIT.

As said if we later on want to move to a hosted git service that will be very easy. -- Lgb
