Now that git-cvsimport and git-svn are mature, I'll share my script which I
call "get.cvs" to track a number of remote archives. It's not extremely
general, but maybe it'll inspire someone else to generalize it.
I have ~/MIRROR/foo-GITSVN tracking a remote archive using git-svn, so
the name of the directory reflects the tracking mechanism. There's also
*-CVS, *-SVN, *-GIT, and *-GITCVS.
For *-GITCVS, I have to keep the args for git-cvsimport around, so I
store that in the respository under getcvs.gitcvsargs.
For *-GITSVN, I have to force the head/origin to softlink to the proper remote
svn reference.
The *-GIT* merges are safe, because they won't pull over any uncommited
entries, but they *will* merge into whatever the current branch is. This
keeps any checked out tree trivially up to date, which is mostly what I'm
watching anyway.
Setting up *-GIT* generally requires checking out a master branch to really
track the files... I think I did this with "git-checkout -b master origin".
