Imports a project from one or more Arch repositories\&. It will follow branches and repositories within the namespaces defined by the <archive/branch> parameters supplied\&. If it cannot find the remote branch a merge comes from it will just import it as a regular commit\&. If it can find it, it will mark it as a merge whenever possible (see discussion below)\&.
-The script expects you to provide the key roots where it can start the import from an initial import or tag type of Arch commit\&. It will follow and import new branches within the provided roots\&.
+The script expects you to provide the key roots where it can start the import from an \fIinitial import\fR or \fItag\fR type of Arch commit\&. It will follow and import new branches within the provided roots\&.
It expects to be dealing with one project only\&. If it sees branches that have different roots, it will refuse to run\&. In that case, edit your <archive/branch> parameters to define clearly the scope of the import\&.
