Hi Emmanuel,

I tried it with two packages - epubcheck and saxonhe, but it failed
for both of them e.g.:

$ ./migrate-svn-repo-to-git saxonhe
Initializing the Git repository...

git: 'svn' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean one of these?
    fsck
    mv
    show

Are you in the source code tree?
(You could use --create if you wish to create this file.)
error: pathspec 'debian/control' did not match any file(s) known to git.
error: pathspec 'debian/changelog' did not match any file(s) known to git.

What am I doing wrong?
