There is another usage mode: "we're dumping CVS and switching to this
new-fangled git thing."  I have myself done this with several projects by now.

I agree that in that case, the problem space is _much_ simpler, and you're 
able to do much more. 

And I suspect it works well for projects with a few developers that can 
just afford to do that. And it obviously works for a big project with 
hundreds of developers that is forced to do it. 

But I suspect it's not the common way of doing things. There's already a 
few projects that do the "maintain in parallel" thing, like the Wine tree 
discussed a few days ago.
Oh, agreed.  However, if you want to convert your master repository you 
may want to do conversion.

And in *either* case you may want to convert commit messages.
