For any conversion we're clearly going to need to run various validation (comparing properties of the converted repository, such as contents at branch tips, with expected values of those properties based on the SVN repository) and fix issues shown up by that validation. reposurgeon has its own tools for such validation; I also intend to write some validation scripts myself.
Would it be feasible to require that both conversions produce the same output repository to some degree? Can we just look at release tags and require that they have the same hash in both conversions, or are there good reasons why the two would produce different outputs?
