Thanks for the feedback!
I used gitk to get an overview of the git log and such. The main history view shows the correct commit dates, so I thought everything was fine and dandy.
* Commit dates are lost. Looks like all commits are from when the script was run. * Commits have the runner as committer (with original committer as author).Now that you mention it, I see that the committer and author info are different.
git filter-branch can be used to set committer name and date equal to the author ditto.
* Authors list is wrong. At least my name is, so probably others are.
I/We can fix the author info in svn2git-authors.txt, turn it into a git mailmap, and use git filter-repo --mailmap my-mailmap to correct the info in the repo.
I'm on vacation now, but can have a look at this when I'm back.
