Maintaining an accurate cvs->git mirror is not trivial (I know, from experience with the full repositories of coreutils, emacs, libc, and a few more). If you can do it well and keep it accurate, then it'd make a fine and very welcome service. I've found that the initial conversion works best with cvsparse. It's _much_ more efficient than git-cvsimport, and more reliable, too. _______________________________________________ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list
