Just thought I'd let you know that cvs2git (plus a bit of CVS fix-up before
hand) is being used to migrate eclipse.org to git*.  It's not like there's
much competition for reliable cvs->git migration tools :)

I also noticed as part of this that current cvs2git trunk produces pretty
stable conversions, so doing an import and doing it after sometime produces
stable SHA-1s for the common commits, which is great!

Thanks all for the great tool!

Cheers,
James
