Re: [PATCH] Documentation: reorganize cvs-migration.txt

Hi,

Modify cvs-migration.txt so it explains first how to develop against a 
shared repository, then how to set up a shared repository, then how to 
import a repository from cvs.  Though this seems chronologically 
backwards, it's still readable in this order, and it puts the more 
commonly needed material closer to the front.

This is a laudable goal, and the order makes sense (put first that what 
most people are interested in).

A few comments:

- just skimming the patch, I found "commiting" (needs another "t"), and 
  "-bare" (needs another "-").

- It might make more sense to "git init-db --shared" and fetch the initial 
  revision into it, rather than clone it and then fix. You might also want
  to mention that the "--shared" of -clone is different in meaning from 
  that of -init-db (make just a footnote of it, to avoid intimidating 
  readers).

- By far the easiest method to import from cvs is to go to a checked out
  _CVS_ working directory, and just say "git cvsimport".
