git-svn: only look at the new parts of svn:mergeinfo
In a Subversion repository where many feature branches are merged into a
trunk, the svn:mergeinfo property can grow very large. This severely
slows down git-svn's make_log_entry() because it is checking all
mergeinfo entries every time the property changes.
In most cases, the additions to svn:mergeinfo since the last commit are
pretty small, and there is nothing to gain by checking merges that were
already checked for the last commit in the branch.
Add a mergeinfo_changes() function which computes the set of interesting
changes to svn:mergeinfo since the last commit. Filter out merged
branches whose ranges haven't changed, and remove a common prefix of
ranges from other merged branches.
This speeds up "git svn fetch" by several orders of magnitude on a large
repository where thousands of feature branches have been merged.
