Had svn2git running all night but it started failing when it hit the jbosstools_xulrunner branch - not sure what is so special about that one
but it started making a mess.

Thus I moved to use this svn2git fork (https://github.com/svenax/svn2git) which has an option to start from a specific revision.

Now it is running with a start from when jbosstools-3.0.x was made (i.e. the time where jbosstools as we know it today started).

*cross your fingers* for noone having created weird branches since then :)
