Re: [RFC] faking cvs annotate

Any suggestions as to how to implement a not-too-slow annotate that
looks reasonable enough so as to fool real cvs clients?

For starters, you could use my attempt:

http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/archives/git/0508/7171.html

It does not fool any CVS user, because it does not fake version numbers. 
Instead, you can display SHA1s, short SHA1s, author names, or mixtures 
thereof.

However, I learnt to use git-whatchanged in the meantime, and I'll 
probably never go back.

Hth,
