I know I have some projects that were imported or loaded from a cvs
conversion into the wrong place, then immediately moved. I haven't
tried to separate these back out, but if I ever do, is there a way to
clean up the path? Would it work to start the dump at the revision
of the move to the current path (without --incremental) if I'm willing
to lose the older history that might have been in a cvs conversion?
