+These files are here to show how the conversion from SVN to Git was made.
+ It is for future reference in case the conversion needs to be re-done to
+fix errors that surface only later.
+ It can also be used to showcase a way to convert existing SVN repositories
+in traditional trunk/ branches/ tags/ layout.
+
+Not recorded in the script is an effort to force rebasing BRANCH_MAPI on
+RELEASE_6-3-8 in order to provide proper ancestry for the MAPI branch, and ease
+later merging, and also missing in the script are branch renames and two more
+branch-to-tag conversions.
