Problem exporting to git

I tested the thingy, but it dies all over the place with all kinds of
Unicode errors. I'm trying to fix those but considering it dies at the end
of the run and it's a big repository it's taking forever.

I also wonder about something else: I need to convert not one branch but a
whole bunch of branches that are related - I have a set of related
"version" branches that merge from low version to high, plus a number of
"fix" branches that can merge in any of those (and then upward). That
merging is supposed to work properly with git after conversion.

Using fast-import this works properly by using the marks files in the right
way; commits can be "correlated" so that the import for a branch knows the
right starting point for commits and merges from other branches.

How would those tools handle this, as they do not seem to maintain any
marks file?


Thanks again for your help,

Frits
