No. They are different branches of the same thing. We need to keep 
constantly merging them.

That's the reason I said I need to move it to Git. It's a PITA to merge 
from SVN to Git and back. (It would be difficult enough if it were SVN 
alone) We should have been using git-svn to keep track of KDE's SVN, but 
remember that Phonon in Qt started on Perforce...

So, yeah, it's a mess I want to clear.

Correct.
