Re: Switching heads and head vs branch after CVS import

Hi,

I was seriously considering just breaking the "remote cvs" support
entirely (you can always just use cvsup or something to download it to

making a C language CVS importer. That would speed things up by an order
of magnitude or more, as far as I can tell.

That may be true for many "cvs import" tasks, but not _at all_ for "cvs 
update" tasks. I, for one, keep track of _lots_ of CVS projects via 
git-cvsimport. I would hate it if I could no longer do that.
