+	Perform move and/or copy detection, as described in the

+--export-marks=<file>::
+	Dumps the internal marks table to <file> when complete.
+	Marks are written one per line as `:markid SHA-1`. Only marks
+	for revisions are dumped; marks for blobs are ignored.
+	Backends can use this file to validate imports after they
+	have been completed, or to save the marks table across
+	incremental runs.  As <file> is only opened and truncated
+	at completion, the same path can also be safely given to
+	\--import-marks.
+
+--import-marks=<file>::
+	Before processing any input, load the marks specified in
+	<file>.  The input file must exist, must be readable, and
+	must use the same format as produced by \--export-marks.
++
+Any commits that have already been marked will not be exported again.
+If the backend uses a similar \--import-marks file, this allows for
+incremental bidirectional exporting of the repository by keeping the
+marks the same across runs.
+
+--fake-missing-tagger::
+	Some old repositories have tags without a tagger.  The
+	fast-import protocol was pretty strict about that, and did not
+	allow that.  So fake a tagger to be able to fast-import the
+	output.
