Hi,

Motivated by Ori's tools repository, I continued with the clean-up I started
some time ago of the cvs2svn artifacts in the ancient history of the main
scummvm repostory.

Work in progress at:

https://github.com/wjp/scummvm-archive

It's a manual adaptation of a git-svn import from the start until r23037
(around the branch point for 0.9.0). Since the changes necessary were rather
random, there's no easy way to reproduce the process automatically
unfortunately.

I'm taking a break with this for now, so feel free to pick it up where I left
off, or we can let it rest until the tools repo is entirely done.


Done:
* convert svn tags into git tags
* fix up all cvs2svn artificial commits by merging them into the real commits
  they belong to
* clean up the cvs2svn conversion that put all files in a scummvm-old subdir

To do:
* convert usernames into real names and email addresses
* decide if the exp_1 branch is worth keeping
* clean up the git-svn-id lines in the commit messages
* the rest of the repository :-)
  The last revision I included is r23037. It is easy to graft things back
  together after converting the rest separately.
