[1] http://arthurdejong.org/svn2cl/ Format of the file is: nick1:Name nick2:Name 2 It would be nice if git-svn could support the same format in addition to the one using ``='' instead of ``:''. That way you might have the authors file already available in projects that made use of svn2cl. Does it make sense ?
