Are you thinking about the svn references etched into each commit ? The current git-svn repos all have this information appended at the end of each commit: git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/surefire/trunk@1374642 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68
Personally I think we should keep them, since they contain the historical reference to the SVN commit number. And technically we have a lot of jiras referencing "r990909" so removing them is not a good idea wrt traceability of changes. I know some projects (spring-framework) removed them and others kept them. But they have value for us; at least the revision number. We could consider rewriting it to just "r900900" although personally I think it's just uneccesary work.
