```
Need to update git-svn.perl to match Documentation/git-svn.txt so
--preserve-merges|p can be used in dcommit. Similar to
https://github.com/git/git/commit/b64e1f58158d1d1a8eafabbbf002a1a3c1d72929#diff-f9a64e34cbe6c3ee4f62698008a33773R571

Nate.


Documentation/git-svn.txt
 626 -m::
 627 --merge::
 628 -s<strategy>::
 629 --strategy=<strategy>::
 630 -p::
 631 --preserve-merges::
 632         These are only used with the 'dcommit' and 'rebase' commands.
