When I attempt to use this script, I get the following error:
warning: Not updating refs/heads/master (new tip 26b1787fca04f2f9772b6854843fe99fe06e6088 does not contain fc0ad65d14d88fd27a6cee74c7cef3176f6900ec). I have git 1.5.6.5, any ideas?
Thanks!!

I also get this error, here's the output (it seems to stem from an error in the python script):

>>> I used --force for fast-import, but then everything seems deleted, so you end up doing a reset, checkout, add, *then* commit.
>>> Seems really odd. I edited the script however, maybe this is why... this is my changes:
>>> That control character is a ^q^0 in emacs, see git fast-import --help for more info.
