Junio, here is a replacement for the second patch. Different from your diff, I replaced tabs with 8 spaces because all of the surrounding code uses spaces for indentation. Steffen ---- snip --- Git histories may have multiple roots, which can cause git merge-base to fail and this caused git cvsserver to die. This commit teaches git cvsserver to handle a failing git merge-base gracefully, and modifies the test case to verify this. All the test cases now use a history with two roots. Thanks to Junio C Hamano for the implementation that avoids calling git-merge-base twice.
