I've written a quick blog post on how to convert simple subversion repositories 
to fossil as the info didn't seem to be readily out there:

I did discover something which might be a bug. If you don't include the 
"--full-tree" on the git fast-export command, your fossil repository omits any 
files which were included in the very first svn revision, but never modified.

It's possible I'm using the wrong commands, but reading the docs didn't suggest 
any obvious mistakes.

I'm looking forward to trying this with my main repository, which is 
significantly more complex, and makes much use of svn:externals, symlinks and 
svn:ignore. I suspect the effort to rearrange the project will be worth it. :-)
