Will doing this then change all the git-svn-id: lines in the commit logs 
for those imported revisions? I'm asking because my understanding is 
that git-svn uses those git-svn-id: lines to determine which branch 
you're on, and if the URLs are now all out of date won't it then think 
it can't determine the correct branch?

Thanks for the suggestions so far.
