Mercifully, the latest checkout of svn2git seems to take care of that.
I've developed a wicked headache.

Jeff, the repository is temporarily available at
https://github.com/darrendale/basemap . It would be really helpful if
you would have a look at the network graph at
https://github.com/darrendale/basemap/network to make sure there are
no surprises, maybe clone the repository and check that the working
directory is identical to your svn checkout.
