	11	-----------
0.64.17 by Ian Clatworthy escape commit messages, diff author to committer and cache fixes	12
	13	Things that ought to work:
	14
	15	* add & deletes of files and symlinks
	16
	17	* automatic creation of directories (but not deletion)
	18
	19	* executable permission
	20
0.64.38 by Ian Clatworthy clean-up doc ready for initial release	21	* branches created based on where the import is run:
	22
	23	* import into a shared repository outside a branch - branches
	24	are created as subdirectories of the current directory
	25
	26	* import into a branch inside a shared repository - current
	27	branch becomes the trunk and other branches are created
	28	as sister directories
	29
	30	* import into a standalone tree - warnings are given
	31	for branches (heads) found but not imported
	32
	33	Things that might work (not tested enough):
0.64.17 by Ian Clatworthy escape commit messages, diff author to committer and cache fixes	34
	35	* separate author to committer
	36
0.64.38 by Ian Clatworthy clean-up doc ready for initial release	37	* merge tracking
