Marco: I'll try kcompare on the huge files both on and off the NFS file system to see if it has a noticeable impact. Johannes: I read somewhere in the past week that it was possible to maintain our existing CVS environment with git. I though it was a separate package to export git back to cvs but I just noticed a git-cvsserver and as a std part of git and was wondering about using that. We have a number of build machines with flamebox perl scripts pulling out CVS branches for builds. I was wondering what is the best way to use git and it's nicer pull/push model and merge facility and possibly maintain CVS exports for scripts doing builds if possible the cvsweb and bonsai (CVS Query Form) that a number of engineers are currently using. I started looking over out flamebox scripts with the intent up converting them over to git but I mentioned the git to cvs coexistence and we are wondering if that's a better route than upgrading the flamebox scripts. Having our existing cvsweb, bonsai, and gitweb along with the git utilities seems at least desirable.
