Finding the branch points doesn't seem too hard (but I'm an optimist),
and it seems the merge points have a special log message I should be
able to detect easily too.

What is the proper way to convert a branch? Should I first import the
whole trunk and then add the branches one by one (and how?), or should I
import the trunk up to a branch point, then import each changeset in the
appropriate place?

Or do you mean I need a tailor configuration for each branch
and the trunk, and run them on a subset of revisions at a time?

Wow, that makes a few more tools to look at. Thanks.
