OK, I think I fixed the git mirror. The good news is that things should
work just like your scipy svn git mirror. The bad news is that I moved
the master branch to "old-master-broken-svn-import", so you'll probably
have to rebase all your changes. The new git branch to base off is
"trunk", which is a mirror of the svn trunk. MPL's svn layout doesn't
follow the standard svn repository, so I haven't mirrored other branches
(yet). I'll update the MPL dev docs soon.

Please let me know if you're having any more trouble.
