[PATCH] Docs: update cvs-migration.txt to reflect clone's new default behavior

From: <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:42:47
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

From: J. Bruce Fields <redacted>

I couldn't think of a really quick way to give all the details, so just refer
readers to the git-repo-config man page instead.

I haven't tested recent cvs import behavior--some time presumably it should be
updated to do something more similar to clone.

 [NOTE]
 ================================
-The first `git clone` places the following in the
-`my-project/.git/remotes/origin` file, and that's why the previous step
-and the next step both work.

+The `pull` command knows where to get updates from because of certain

+command; see `git repo-config -l` and the gitlink:git-repo-config[1] man
