The code in vcs-svn was started in 2010 as an attempt to build a
remote-helper for interacting with svn repositories (as opposed to
git-svn). However, we never got as far as shipping a mature remote
helper, and the last substantive commit was e99d012a6bc in 2012.
We do have a git-remote-testsvn, and it is even installed as part of
"make install". But given the name, it seems unlikely to be used by
anybody (you'd have to explicitly "git clone testsvn::$url", and there
have been zero mentions of that on the mailing list since 2013, and even
that includes the phrase "you might need to hack a bit to get it working
properly"[1]).
We also ship contrib/svn-fe, which builds on the vcs-svn work. However,
it does not seem to build out of the box for me, as the link step misses
some required libraries for using libgit.a. Curiously, the original
build breakage bisects for me to eff80a9fd9 (Allow custom "comment
char", 2013-01-16), which seems unrelated. There was an attempt to fix
it in da011cb0e7 (contrib/svn-fe: fix Makefile, 2014-08-28), but on my
system that only switches the error message.
So it seems like the result is not really usable by anybody in practice.
It would be wonderful if somebody wanted to pick up the topic again, and
potentially it's worth carrying around for that reason. But the flip
side is that people doing tree-wide operations have to deal with this
code. And you can see the list with (replace "HEAD" with this commit as
appropriate):
{
echo "--"
git diff-tree --diff-filter=D -r --name-only HEAD^ HEAD
} |
git log --no-merges --oneline e99d012a6bc.. --stdin
which shows 58 times somebody had to deal with the code, generally due
to a compile or test failure, or a tree-wide style fix or API change.
Let's drop it and let anybody who wants to pick it up do so by
resurrecting it from the git history.
As a bonus, this also reduces the size of a stripped installation of Git
from 21MB to 19MB.

The shebang for a python script should be "/usr/bin/env python" and not
"/usr/bin/python". On some OSes like AIX, python default path is not under
"/usr/bin" ("/opt/freeware/bin" for AIX).
Note the main reason behind this change is that AIX rpm will add a
dependency on "/usr/bin/python" instead of "/usr/bin/env".

Quite a large change, most of this was whitespace changes, though there
were a few places where I removed a comma or added a few characters.
Should pass through pep8 and pass every test.

The changes to allow this script to run with Python 3 are minimal and do
not affect its functionality on the versions of Python 2 that are
already supported (2.4 onwards).

To ease testing without depending on a reachable svn server, this
compact python script mimics parts of svnrdumps behaviour. It
requires the remote url to start with sim://.
Start and end revisions are evaluated. If the requested revision
doesn't exist, as it is the case with incremental imports, if no new
commit was added, it returns 1 (like svnrdump).
To allow using the same dump file for simulating multiple incremental
imports, the highest revision can be limited by setting the environment
variable SVNRMAX to that value. This simulates the situation where
higher revs don't exist yet.
