I have used the blessed SVN export as a base, but it still contained numerous errors which I had to fix (some missing files, CR/LF mistakes *including* in binary files).
It would be nice if you could report any such errors you find. Which
I did make some noise about that in the beginning of my svn/cvs -> git odyssee on this list.
missing files, for example?
I'll have to look it back up in the mailinglist logs, although I didn't mention every missing file; I'll see what I can hand you.
CR/LF mistakes might be due to the lack of a svn:eol-style (or svn:content-type, int the case of binaries) property. All files are stored as BLOBs in the repository, but can get CR/LF converted upon checkout. Please indicate the files and I'll add the properties.
Well, from memory, please add it to *all* binary files (graphics mostly), and all files which have CR/LF endings because they were created or intended for DOS/Windows. Especially the graphics files (png/gif) were a PITA to correct.
