I cloned git://gitorious.org/cvsps/cvsps.git and installed cvsps-3.7
at c2ce6cc (More fun with test loads, sigh. Timezones suck.,
2013-01-09) earlier on my $PATH, and tried to run t96xx series with
this patch applied on top of Git 1.8.1.
The first thing I noticed was that all the tests were skipped.
A patch to t/lib-cvs.sh might be sufficient,

And here is what I got:

A funny thing was that without cvsps-3.7 on $PATH (which means I am
getting distro packaged cvsps 2.1), I got identical errors. Looking
at the log message, it seems that you meant to remove t960[123], so
perhaps the patch simply forgot to remove 9601 and 9602?
As neither test runs "git cvsimport" with -o/-m/-M options, ideally
we should be able to pass them with and without having cvsps-3.x.
Not passing them without cvsps-3.x would mean that the fallback mode
of rewritten cvsimport is not working as expected. Not passing them
with cvsps-3.x may mean the tests were expecting a wrong conversion
result, or they uncover bugs in the replacement cvsimport.
t9600 fails with "-a is no longer supported", even without having
cvsps-3.x on the $PATH (i.e. attempting to use the fallback). I
wonder if this is an option the updated cvsimport would want to
simply ignore?
It is a way to tell the old cvsps/cvsimport to disable its
heuristics to ignore commits made within the last 10 minutes (this
is done in the hope of waiting for the per-file nature of CVS
commits to stabilize, IIUC); the user tells the command that he
knows that the CVS repository is now quiescent and it is safe to
import the whole thing.
If the updated cvsps can identify the changeset more reliably and it
no longer needs "-a" option, it may be more helpful to the users to
migrate their script if it allowed, warned and then ignored the
option. It certainly would help sharing of this test script between
runs that use the old and new cvsps as backends.
t9601 (after resurrecting the t/t9601/cvsroot directory) fails in an
interesting way.

Apparently, the copy of "subprocess.py" I have does not give us the

The story is the same for t9602 and t9603 (again after resurrecting
the necessary files).
http://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html tells me that
check_output has first become available in 2.7.
So... does this mean that we now set the minimum required version of
Python to 2.7? I dunno.
