stable git commit ids over time

I've been fiddling with repeated runs of cvs2git to
"incrementally" convert a cvs repository that's still in use (a pity).

    So far, I've learned that there are some cvs keywords that aren't
stable over time (e.g. $Header$).  This was easy enough to fix by
turning off keyword expansion.

    I just got a batch of fresh id churn that's caused by cvs2git's
synthetic commits having slightly different dates, like below:

commit 17c7fa390293a7f773f0fc45f4e05ea45fa1acac
Author: cvs2svn <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Oct 16 18:29:42 2007 +0000

    This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create branch
    'lenny_port_2010_05_25'.

commit 9555d7498eb338291f253cda373be952d2cba7a6
Author: cvs2svn <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Oct 16 18:29:41 2007 +0000

    This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create branch
    'lenny_port_2010_05_25'.


    Any suggestions where to look for a cause of this?  I'm doing this
with 2.3.0 plus a few minor tweaks.
