OK, I see what you're saying. I believe, though, that the python script
you refer to tried to build a "dump" file for Subversion to import,
rather than doing live commits to Subversion in the order they
originally occured. So that's probably why the other script took the
directory-based approach.

So, it looks like I still need to account for "branched" and "rolled
back", no big deal. But Steve had encountered the following output while
running my script, which is completely different than anything I
encountered:

**********************
Label: "031013-077p-TY2"
User: Watsone Date: 13/10/03 Time: 2:03p
Labeled

***************** Version 1 *****************
User: Admin Date: 7/10/03 Time: 5:16p
Created

The separate section about the label is new to me, so I need to see how
it fits in with everything else.
