This gets rid of the git-svn-id: lines at the end of every commit.
If you lose your .git/svn/git-svn/.rev_db file, git-svn will not
be able to rebuild it and you won't be able to fetch again,
either. This is fine for one-shot imports.
- The 'git-svn log' command will not work on repositories using this,

+ This allows git-svn to re-map repository URLs and UUIDs from
+ mirrors created using SVN::Mirror (or svk) for metadata.
+
+ If an SVN revision has a property, "svm:headrev", it is likely
+ that the revision was created by SVN::Mirror (also used by SVK).
+ The property contains a repository UUID and a revision. We want
+ to make it look like we are mirroring the original URL, so
+ introduce a helper function that returns the original identity
+ URL and UUID, and use it when generating metadata in commit
+ messages.
