git-svn might be keeping extra information in files that the other git
tools don't know about.  This would explain why some objects looked
like orphans and were thus culled.  [cc'ing the git list to catch the
attention of the git-svn maintainer(s)].

Ah, and I just fixed a problem I have introduced myself while fiddling
to recover the repository: HEAD should point at "refs/remotes/trunk",
otherwise new commits won't show up in gitweb.
