That'd be lovely, any estimate on when it will be done?

Will it include full history, and all branches/tags, and use svn
post-commit hook to update git repo?
Having at least trunk and the release branches would be great too.

(importing the full history can be done the fastest by running git-svn
locally on the llvm.org server, using file:// paths.)
