The only issues we had were with manual changes to the repository; other than that, we now has a usable git repository for cairo (visible at git://git.cairographics.org/cairo). The comparison tool that I wrote was a cheesy shell script; I think Carl has updated it to do something less severe than rm -rf *; git-reset --hard; if he can share that, I think you'll like it a lot better than mine.

Our CVS import script has some magic ChangeLog-style mangling which
we've posted to the list before; that clearly needs to be encapsulated
in an optional log-reformatting bit for it to be generally useful.
