I did the same "look for conversion that should _not_ have occurred" check for these patches, and all look sane with two exceptions:

 - the cvsserver stuff that you mentioned
 - patch 4/6 changes the commit log message in a few cases for some "git
   svn" tests; presumably nothing is caring about the commit id's
   generated here, but I don't actually have svn installed to run the
   tests to be sure

That makes perfect sense to me.
