svn2git the sourceforge repo

[benkirk]

I'm in the process of mirroring our svn repo, but it is definitely taking some time... Be patient & I'll close this issue when it is done.

So I downloaded the svn2git utility with

 $ git clone git clone https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git.git 

and built it per the instructions. Then

$ mkdir libmesh.git && cd libmesh.git
$ svn2git https://libmesh.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/libmesh --authors ~/authors.txt --verbose

where authors.txt is:

andrsd  = David Andrs 
bbarth = Bill Barth 
benkirk = Benjamin S. Kirk 
ddreyer = Daniel Dreyer 
fprill = Florian Prill 
friedmud = Derek Gaston 
jasondhales = Jason Hales 
jwpeterson = John W. Peterson 
knezed01 = David Knezevic 
libmesh = Libmesh 
pbauman = Paul T. Bauman 
permcody = Cody Permann 
roystgnr = Roy H. Stogner 
sheep_tk = Tim Kroeger 
spetersen = Steffen Petersen 
svallagh = Sylvain Vallaghe 
trumanellis = Truman Ellis 
woutruijter = Wout Ruijter 
(no author) = Unknown 
root = Unknown 

It is taking its sweet time, so I started another one in the mean time that will only include svn revisions 2600 and later:

$ mkdir libmesh.git2 && cd libmesh.git2
$ svn2git https://libmesh.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/libmesh --authors ~/authors.txt --verbose --revision 2600

I'll upload that as soon as it is finished and use it to track svn while the other, complete history finishes. Since our svn repo was actually originally in cvs, I think there may be some weirdness in the earlier versions that are causing the full version history to be confusing.

Done.
