+-R <repack_each_revs>::
+       Specify how often git repository should be repacked.
++
+The default value is 1000. git-svnimport will do import in chunks of 1000
+revisions, after each chunk git repository will be repacked. To disable
+this behavior specify some big value here which is mote than number of
+revisions to import.

+-P <path_from_trunk>::

+By default, the whole tree on the SVN trunk (/trunk) is imported.
