I have cvs repo and use git for daily work. I have head and 2 branches from cvs and store CVS/* files in git too. Usualy this operation pruduce a lot of CVS/Tag files: git checkout -f cvs-v52 (this is one of by cvs's branch) cvs -q up -dP (nothing have been updated) git checkout -f master (this is a dev branch from cvs head) git status pu branch nuke them when use git checkout -f ! - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
