-=======================

-
-Features
-========
-
-fast-import
------------
-
-Things that ought to work:
-
-* add & deletes of files and symlinks
-
-* automatic creation of directories (but not deletion)
-
-* executable permission
-
-* branches created based on where the import is run:
-
- * import into a shared repository outside a branch - branches
- are created as subdirectories of the current directory
-
- * import into a branch inside a shared repository - current
- branch becomes the trunk and other branches are created
- as sister directories
-
- * import into a standalone tree - warnings are given
- for branches (heads) found but not imported
-
-* merge tracking
-
-Things that probably work (more testing needed):
-
-* separate author to committer
-
-* lightweight tags
-
-
-Known Limitations
-=================
-
-Parsing
--------
-
-Things not supported yet:
-
-* renaming a path that contains a space in the old name
-
-* copying a path that contains a space in the source name
-
-* delimited data sections (all data must be length prefixed currently)
-
-* rfc2822 dates.
-
-fast-import
------------
-
-Things not supported yet:
-
-* deterministic revision-ids as an option
-
-* 'reset' handling
-
-* 'filedeleteall' handling
-
-Things not recorded in Bazaar:
-
-* tagger and message for (non-lightweight) tags
-
-* copy semantics
-
-
-Custom Enhancements
-===================
-
-General
--------
-
-The date format is auto-detected.
-
-Parsing
--------
-
-These enhancements over the specification are provided in order
-to read data produced by some verisons of git-fast-export:
-
-* A person's name may be empty
-
-* Long file modes with an extra leading 0, i.e. 0000644,
- 0000755 and 0120000 are legal.
