Great though the only thing that could scary me is if the parent commit of
your first commit (the svn revision number) change between the 2 git
version, I don't know if it will happen but because the history lenght will
change, I've got doubts.
As you said "Time will tell", cross fingers ;-)

I seem to be able (in my GUI client) to create a patch file for the
commit(s) I have lined up. All I need to do is make a copy of my
commit messages and use those while patching the new 'active'
branch... I think.
Time will tell, I guess ;-)

If you moved it from SVN to Git - why cant you just checkin your svn
changes?
Because git has a lot of minor changes in a lot of the same files that
were already changed in SVN. I spent the afternoon yesterday putting
the final touches to my contributions and this morning (before the
excrement hit the ventilator) putting all of that into a whole bunch
of nicely documented commits. If I were to say "f*ck it" and just
overlay all the most recent files over my last SVN copy, I would loose
all of that work.
Also, it's 8 PM over here and I've been at this since 8 AM this
morning. My family is threatening to kick me and my laptop out if I
don't have at least one conherent conversation with them today.
I meant you are on your own in the sense that I (or anyone else) cannot
get into your computer to fix things for you. Of course I appreciate the
The way I understand it, it should be possible to clone the new repo
INFRA will eventually create to my local machine and make that my
"active project". I can then go into my current (by then "inactive")
project and create patches for each of the commits I prepared there,
and apply those patches to my active git project. Am I missing
something, or does that sound like it should work?
