Re: CVS -> SVN -> Git

Sure, we certainly need a meta format of some sort (not a full blown
VCS, agreed, but somehow we need to represent commits, tags and
branches). And IMO, the subversion based format is not a good one,
because it treats branches and tags very different from most other
systems (and from what it should be from a users perspective: an
atomic operation).

Huh?  I don't understand what you're saying about atomicity here.
