Hi,

Thanks!
(as I had no changes in my checkout, I just pulled the branches from remote 
replacing the local one)

> Hello,
> 
> Several people reported problems with the fact that git history
> included the "wipeout-and-revert" pair of commits imported from the
> SVN history. The problems seem to be:
> 
> 1) every file has a pair of two commits (removal/ restore),
> 
> 2) not every tool shows file history past the removal point.
> 
> Since we're still within the "migration weekend" and because this is
> relatively easy to fix I think it was worth repairing while we still
> can.
> 
> I cherry picked all commits that have happened since the migration on
> master and branch_5x and re-applied them on top of the commit
> immediately preceding the wipeout (for each branch correspondingly).
> Then I updated references to master and branch_5x on the repository.
> Look at the attached commit tree to see what it looks like for
> branch_5x.
