Actually, "svn.authorsProg" is already documented as a config option for --authors-prog.

It's been a while since I looked at this, but in git-svn, all the "--xxx-yyy" command-line options should be available under the appropriate "svn.xxxYyy" config key.

So, can you confirm that svn.addAuthorFrom and svn.useLogAuthor config keys work and can be documented?

Even better would be for you to provide a patch to the documentation :) Otherwise, I can write one up sometime this week.

Thanks.
