This is fine, I just needed to know.

How hard is it to, in a generic way, take a grafts file and reconstruct commits to include the parents in the graft file in the actual tree? I am wondering because I couldn't, after much work, get git-svnimport to find my merges correctly. So, I am needing to hand-graft some merges in to make things right. Any suggestions? I could try to figure something out if I can find some time. I'm good with graph traversals and such.
