And I think handling this behaviour as a config option is the right thing,
because most of the time if someone imports a project into git he
will import the whole history, especially if he is using one of the

special case and it is unlikely seen again.

Not all projects run on a public VCS.  Hell, not all projects run on a
VCS at all.  And in the CVS case, you don't always have enough access
to actually download the repository, which afaik is needed for
importing.
