Thanks!  I'll try moving the tests to the first patch and trying it
and hopefully send out a branch to pull tomorrow.

If I don't send anything tomorrow, that's probably a sign that I never
will, so since I like the goal of the series I guess it would be a
kind of implied ack.

I seemed to have missed the GSoC wrap up conversation... (links happily
accepted)  Looking at the big picture (as much as I can remember) it
seems to me the missing pieces now are branch mapping (lots of hard
work), and possibly parts (all?) of the "push to SVN" functionality?

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Stephen

I also seem to have missed such conversation, if anything like that
happened.  It certainly would have been nice for the mentors and the
student for each project to give us a two-to-three-paragraphs
summary.

As GSoC is a Google event and not the Git community one, I wouldn't
*demand* a concluding write-up, but it still took considerable
community resource, so...
