[Slightly OT] python based kdesvn-build variant that uses git locally available

The main reason for the rewrite was the need for an interactive tool. 

It should be possible for you to use my tool with your current git 
repositories btw. . If you use git-svn.

I was especially interested in the 'log' function which shows me what changes 
the remote vcs has got since my last build.

I knew there was something i should have put on my TODO list. I have made an 
extensive research and have some ideas how to solve it. Someday i will TRY to 
implement a generic solution. For now i think i will hardcode the oxygen/ozone 
exceptions. Btw. couldn't we just make up a kde rule to forbid copy+paste even 
when implemented with svn:externals. Just joking.
