75323459b8 svn-fe: warn about experimental status
svn-fe is young and some coming cleanups might involve backward
incompatible UI changes.  Add some words of warning to the manual so
early adopters that are not following the project closely don't get
burned.

d0fc40c741 svn-fe manual: Clarify warning about deltas in dump files
Those in the know would notice that dump file format version 2
means "svnadmin dump --no-deltas", but for the rest of us, an
explicit reminder is useful.

712308f29a Update svn-fe manual
The svn-fe example does not litter the working directory with
.bin files any more (hoorah!).

The permissive error handling implies a known bug.  We should
be flagging iffy input and, even if we continue, reporting it
on exit.

21746aa34f SVN dump parser
svndump parses data that is in SVN dumpfile format produced by
`svnadmin dump` with the help of line_buffer and uses repo_tree and
fast_export to emit a git fast-import stream.

Based roughly on com.hydrografix.svndump 0.92 from the SvnToCCase
project at <http://svn2cc.sarovar.org/>, by Stefan Hegny and
others.

[rr: allow input from files other than stdin]
[jn: with test, more error reporting]

e605164d1d Add a sample user for the svndump library
The svn-fe tool takes a Subversion dump file as input and produces
a fast-import stream as output.  This can be useful as a low-level
tool in building other importers, or for debugging the vcs-svn
library.

 make svn-fe
 make svn-fe.1

to test.
