Ah, see, this is why in my original version the syntax was:

import
refs/heads/master
refs/heads/next
\n

Instead of the current:

import refs/heads/master
import refs/heads/next
\n

You can have multiple imports in the current system, you just need to
remember to add the trailing newline.

import refs/heads/master
\n
import refs/heads/next
\n

In the above case you'll have to have two done commands.
