Created 'filter' file
---
include "phpGedView/."
exclude"conf"
exclude"db"
exclude"distribution"
exclude"fomat"
exclude"hooks"
exclude"locks"
exclude"PhPGedcom"
exclude"README.txt"

Basically exclude everything but phpGedView directory and include all of
that?

Sitting in the /srv/repo directory as working dir

hg convert phpgedview-svn pgv-web --filemap filter

but get
abort: log stream exception '160006 - No such revision 1'

( for the record the svn filtered clone took 5 hours in all )
