+This is only used with the 'dcommit', 'rebase', 'log', 'find-rev' and
+'show-ignore' commands.

+These commands tries to detect the upstream subversion branch by means of
+the embedded 'git-svn-id' line in commit messages. When --first-parent is
+specified, git-svn only follows the first parent of each commit, effectively
+ignoring commits brought into the current branch through merge-operations.
