.git/svn/trunk/.rev_db should be a symlink to .git/svn/trunk/.rev_db.f944dda1-3e31-0410-9475-8f268450faf6

I keep .rev_db around as a symlink for backwards compatibility in case the user wants to downgrade.

I'm running cmp(1) to compare the file and symlink. Are you running diff2[1] replacements in your tree and it's not understanding symlinks?

Works for me(TM).

[1] - I think that's what you called it. I have had trouble keeping up-to-date with git things lately.
