This series implements some efficiency enhancements; particularly in dealing with repositories which have a single trunk branch which receives many merges of feature branches and/or cherry-picks. It also fixes a number of corner cases in the merge conversion code.

It would be nice if the people who have experienced slow git-svn performance in these situations could test that this fixes the performance issues, and that the resulting repositories seem to have correct contents.

Eric, I'm using Alex's trick of a single commit which adds failing tests - marked as _expect_failure - and then marked them as succeeding as the series progresses.
