(If the cvsps 2 vs 3 issue does require a fallback > git-cvsimport script then maybe the whole series is still valid?) There is my reroll of Eric's patch [*1*], that is in 'pu'. The topic ends at 12b3541 (t9600: adjust for new cvsimport, 2013-01-13). I think the folks on the traditional Git side prefer the approach taken by it to keep the old one under cvsimport-2 while adding Eric's as cvsimport-3 and have a separate version switcher wrapper [*2*, *3*]. Also Chris Rorvick, a contributor to cvsps-3 & new cvsimport combo, who already has patches to Eric's version, agrees that it is a foundation we can build on together [*4*]. Eric hasn't spoken on the topic yet, but I think what the rest of us agreed may be a reasonable starting point. I think I can apply your patches on top of 12b3541 with "am -3" and have it automatically update git-cvsimport-2.perl ;-) [References] *1* http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/213170/focus=213460 *2* http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/213170/focus=213432 *3* http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/213170/focus=213466 *4* http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/213537/focus=213595 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
