 As of version 0.4, bzr-svn creates revisions with different revision ids than 
 previous versions. In other words, existing bzr-svn branches created with 
 0.3.x can not be used directly with 0.4.0 but will have to be upgraded to 
 work with 0.4.0 using the "bzr svn-upgrade" command. The bzr-rebase package 
 has to be installed for this command to work correctly.
