[PATCH] Generate tags with correct timestamp (git-svnimport)

Now uses git-tag instead of manually constructing the tag. This gives us a correct timestamp, removes some crufty code, and makes it work the same as git-cvsimport.

The generated tags are now lightweight tags instead of tag objects, which may or may not be the behaviour we want.

Also, remove two unused variables from git-cvsimport.
