Ah, so "ignores" would be more correct than "clobbers". Which means...

C:\> regedit /E migrate.reg HKCU\Software\TortoiseSVN\TortoiseProc
C:\> notepad migrate.reg

Change two lines...
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TortoiseSVN\TortoiseProc\commit] ->
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TortoiseSVN\History\commit16db334f-51d9-0350-863f-d33a1f133fc4]
(using correct UUID, of course)

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TortoiseSVN\TortoiseProc\repoURLS] ->
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TortoiseSVN\History\repoURLS]

C:\> regedit migrate.reg

Hmmmm, works for repoURLS, but only some of the log message history
entries get loaded (though they're all moved) which makes me suspect a
subtle format change, which makes me worried this will cause breakage.
Maybe comment migration isn't so essential after all. :)
