Any chance that someone could write up some instructions for this?

Like Daniel, I work in a Linux environment (RHEL 5.5 in my case) where I
don't have root access, so I got as far as hgsubversion complaining
about svn bindings before giving up.

It's a shame that this isn't included with hg as standard, as it appears
to be with gitsvn, since until we complete our transition to git repos
at work, I'd much rather access our svn repo through hg than through
git.

Take care,


Mark..........
