Oh, but it has! The beautiful thing is that you can change to git _without_ changing all client software! Just to a git-cvsimport, switch, and some might not even notice that the server has changed behind their back. And then, you can phase out CVS slowly. BTW have you worked with MSVC's integrated source control? In every single case where I had to work with MSVC, I found I'm way faster with external tools (and it did not matter if the SCM was Visual Source Safe, CVS or PVCS). I know that my colleagues found the same. BTW2 I agree that some deciding people would make MSVC integration a premise for migration to Git. So, why don't you give it a try? (I do not have a working MSVC setup, or I would help you.)
