Then you want a single git repo/tree/project. The thing is how to work
through your mangled CVS history.

Two options there...

 - Don't. Import from after the last directory reorg or from your last
interesting release. Keep the cvs tree for people who really want to
dig into the past. this has several advantages, as initial checkouts
will be faster, import times shorter, less pain overall.

Yes, this is definitely on the shortlist of options.
If we can't keep all the history, we may as well make
a clean start. Thanks for the advice.

Cheers,
Geoff.
