Very amused by the automated commit email Sourceforge sent out - "15580 new 
commits to Git" and I really thought it was about to list them all, until 
thankfully it cut off after a hundred with "And 15480 more commits."

I notice the early ones have very incomplete actual changeset content, often 
including changes only to the "meta" stuff like build files even where the 
commit log talks about extensive code changes. I think this is because at some 
point we made a wholesale move of all the actual source code files, I guess 
either because we switched from having only the source tree in svn to following 
the svn trunk/tags/branches convention, or because we added the website etc at 
the root level and moved the code down to rosegarden/ - or even both. So, many 
of the early commits were changing file paths that are not actually located 
within the root of the repo as you are now seeing and converting it.

I don't know whether that's fixable - it would involve remapping the paths in a 
way that definitely constitutes fakery; I think I tried to do this when I was 
messing around a decade ago but failed and gave up - and it certainly isn't 
likely to be important. You've likely already noticed this and decided it isn't 
worth doing anything about, but I thought I'd bring it up just to be annoyi- I 
mean, thorough.
