I don't know if I did it the *right way*, but I did get it working and
it looks OK.

We wanted our release tags moving over, which I did manually, and the
branches we had in our Subversion repository. It all looks OK now, if
there is a better way Google failed to find it with the keywords I
supplied it... I would be interested in whether anyone sees any
obvious problems with what I did.

It does look OK to me though, and allows us to easily browse the
history as it was today.

Thanks,

Marcus
