Indeed. :)

My first run of the kdelibs repo is here:
http://gitweb.kde.org/scratch/ianmonroe/kdelibs-test.git
Basically I just took Thiago's old rules, separated out kdelibs and
updated it to use the latest svn2git stuff (eg annotated tags). The
tags and branches all look pretty sound to me.

What I know is missing is the 'deep history' of any modules that
entered kdelibs from elsewhere.

Do folks have any tips or svn commands handy for ferreting that out?

The plasma team explicitly told me not to worry about them, apparently
plasma has been refactored so much since that plasma before it was in
kdelibs is irrelevant now.
