everyone, please run these commands on every computer you have Git

[Magnus Bergmark]

Not saying that it is wanted or anything, but there is a possibility of
rewriting the global history by using the filter-commits command. (Unsure
about the name, but I know it exists)
It basically lets you run a script on every commit in the entire history.
Great for removing deep references to copyrighted material, change names of
commiters, and so on. This could be run directly after the svn import so
it's impossible to muck up people's private clones, but it would "rewrite
history" and that could be a very bad thing for some projects.

More often the GUI should be able to pair them together. Redmine (a
trac-like software) can do this association, as can GitHub AFAIR. Perhaps
this is something for the Gitorious team to add.
