Grafts can be very useful especially when migrating to Git - a very good strategy might be just to start from scratch with your current state, then import your previous history and graft it. The big advantage is that if you find out later that the import is screwed up, you can fix that and reimport. The fact that you don't need to haul 10 years of CVS history around unless you actually know you need it can be perceived as both advantage and disadvantage. The _BAD_ grafts are those that replace list of commit's parents instead of just appending (typically to an empty one). I didn't actually have any idea people use grafts in such a twisted and perverse way... ;-) -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
