git rebase will drop those "empty" commits by default and you'll end up with the
cvs-imported version.

How do I perform this rebase if the empty commit is on the same
branch, say the master branch, as the original CVS landed commit?  I
attempted such a git-rebase using 1.5.4, but, iirc, git-rebase
responded that the branch was already up-to-date.

On second thought, I don't recall with what message git-rebase
responded, but I do recall that the commit was still on the master
branch.

As I recall it (I'm using fromcvs, not git-cvsimport) cvs HEAD get imported
into origin which on initial import gets copied to master. So I think you
should git rebase origin
