Hmm, I still get the same error as with 2.0.31 . However, as has been 
indicated by others before, the files do get imported despite the error. 
Sometimes this is not clear from the import output though as the N/U 
lines are apparently not always displayed (can't detect when they show 
and when they don't - seems to be at random). Also, the release tag will 
not be applied to the new revision.

It also still allows me to import with a different branch name than what 
I used before without any error or warning, again messing up the 
repository (well, now that I know what's going on thanks to John Hoey 
it's actually rather easy to remedy but still...).

This doesn't feel quite finished... were you maybe talking about the 
upcoming 2.0.33 instead?

Cheers,
