I have a little script (called rmcvsid) in my private path, that just wraps a Perl oneliner: #! /bin/sh exec perl -i -p -e 's/\$(Id|Revision):.*?\$/\$$1: \$/' "$@"; This edits inplace all cvs keywords to be not expanded. If you call it for all files *before* you throw them into git, you don't need to suppress the diffs, because there are none. You may have to add Source, Date and maybe others.
