Well, there's another file that cvsps generate (in $HOME/.cvsps) that helps 
here and that is named ":<method>:<method_args>:#path#to#cvsroot#modulename." 
This file contains the needed information. As far as I can see though, 
git-cvsimport does not use it.

The plan would be to convert all modules in one go, with no one committing in 
the meantime, so that's not a problem.

I'll try and dig a little deeper into git-cvsimport and see if I can make it 
use this information...
