Good, that answers a question I was going to have to ask at some point. > At some point we need to work out the mapping for which subdirectories of > /branches are actual branches and which contain branches a level lower > down.

Yes, it is my normal practice to set up a publicly visible repo with the conversion machinery so the project members can review it. I'll have one up within a few days.
