CVS <--> GIT workflow...

Hi all,

[ Please Cc me, as I am not subscribed to the list. ]

I am wondering if there's any best practises/howtos on using CVS and
Git together.  I have a project which is currently residing in CVS;
people actively use it to add changes, etc.  Which is fine -- and for
a variety of reasons we're unable to simply switch away from using CVS
to Git.

So... the question is, can I use Git locally to manage all my work in
-- create topic branches, merge them, etc., and then commit that back
out to the CVS repository?   Likewise, I would need to keep my Git
repository in synch with any changes to the CVS repository -- is that
possible?  Has anyone else done something like this?  What I am
effectively wanting to do is Git for my entire development on this
project and just forget it even uses CVS.

I've read up on git-cvsimport which seems to explain how to convert a
current CVS repo over to Git -- is that right?  Any information you
can point me to would be very welcome.  I am not adverse to reading,
providing it's useful to me.  :)

Thanks, in advance,

David
