Splitting Off from Repository

[Steven Yi]

Hi Peer,

Thanks for your reply.  Unfortunately the situation is that I had
converted the full SVN repo and then made commits to the mercurial
repo.

Luckily, not all parts of the large repo were committed to after the
conversion.  I tried hgsvn yesterday which seems to work well for my
situation and together with the mercurial splitting script I found and
perhaps some manual work, I think I can construct the split off
project repositories.  I think it's just going to require some manual
work but will be worth it in the end and I'm glad that it's even
possible.

Thanks all for your replies!
