Yeah, I was ignoring this part. :)  git svn is not really wired for
it.

The instructions were meant to also be usable in a case where oldproj
and newproj are entirely independent repositories.

If the layout has been relatively stable before, maybe "git svn
--no-follow-parent" would give some joy.

Still I would be interested in hearing where the grafting procedure
went wrong.  If you end up tracking it down to a single step, do
please let us know.
