Sadly, we already have a bunch of commits against the new server on 1.4.4.
Is there a good way of getting just the recent commits from the new
server on 1.4.4, svnadmin dump | svnadmin load, and then putting back
in the recent commits that were on the new server?
BTW, some of the commits will be on both the old and new servers.
Thanks!
