Ah. OK, that is yet another bug inherited from 2.x - the code doesn't match the documented (and correct) behavior. Please send me a patch against the cvsps repo, I'll merge it. > Perhaps it is simplest to just save a CVS_LAST_IMPORT_TIME file in > $GIT_DIR and not worry about it any more. Yes, I think you're right. Trying to carry that information in-band would probably doom us to all sorts of bug-prone complications. Thanks for the good analysis. I wish everybody I had to chase bugs with could explain them with such clarity and concision. Sigh. Now I have to figure out if cvsps's behavior can be rescued in Chris Rorvick's recently-discovered failure case. I'm not optimistic. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S.
