Ah!  There is some tool version and db format problems.  In which case
the svnserve is useful to adapt between and work around the file
format differences.  Gotcha!

Earlier I had tested the import using svn 1.9.5 and git 2.11.0 and
didn't have any interactions problems.  Trisquel 7's has svn 1.8.8 but
obviously other svn installations may be newer.  I'll try to spend a
little more time to figure out the version interaction cases.

It seems to me that git-svnimport has been removed from the git
suite and should no longer be appearing in the documentation.

Thanks!
