Jeroen, please don't do that. We had this discussion back in Feb 2007
on the maintainers list, please search for the thread named "Discourage
cvs-import (was: Re: Plan for tomorrows (20070222) FESCO meeting)".

Is using cvs-import for updating a package really discouraged?


From the discussion I was pointed to it seems it has to do with having the maintainer(s) look at the diffs before they commit anything, and cvs-import.sh possibly nuking changes other people made... Someone with more knowledge on the topic might be able to tell us a little more or step in if I'm wrong;

Afaics, cvs-import.sh forces me to look at a diff, so I'm not sure if this concern is still valid/current.
