This is *wonderful*.  Thanks for setting up the machinery (and
thanks Larry for hosting).
I have one question.  Does the mirror repository track renames?
For example, during linux-2.4 bunch of files were moved from
drivers/ide to drivers/ide/pci.  In the mirror, rev 2183 renames
drivers/ide/aec62xx.c to drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.c.  The output
from "svn log" seems to indicate that the mirror repository does
not know about the rename:
  $ svn log -r2183 -v \
    svn://kernel.bkbits.net/linux-2.4/trunk/drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.c
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
  rev 2183:  alan | 2002-12-05 07:04:33 -0800 (Thu, 05 Dec 2002) | 9 lines
  Changed paths:
     M /trunk/drivers/ide/Config.in
     M /trunk/drivers/ide/Makefile
     D /trunk/drivers/ide/aec62xx.c
     D /trunk/drivers/ide/ali14xx.c
     ...
     A /trunk/drivers/ide/pci/adma100.h
     A /trunk/drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.c
     A /trunk/drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.h
     ...
     M /trunk/include/linux/ide.h
  [PATCH] -ac IDE merge
  This will show a few initial troubles I'm sure.
  IDE backport from 2.5
          Andre Hedrick, Jens Axboe, Mark Lord, me, and a few others
  BKrev: 3def6b01w5m1AHONE_DMfDIgVvf3XA
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
My understanding was that renames are shown by "(from /original/path:rev)"
in "svn log -v" output, so I was expecting to see something like:
   D /trunk/drivers/ide/aec62xx.c
   ...
   A /trunk/drivers/ide/pci/aec62xx.c (from /trunk/drivers/ide/aec62xx.c:1)
