Which *might* trash your history.

cvsps v2 and git cvsimport work as advertised with simple, linear CVS repositories. I maintain a git mirror of an active CVS repo and run git cvsimport every few days to sync with the latest upstream changes. The only problem I encountered so far was when you released cvsps v3 and broke git cvsimport. :) I had to manually downgrade to cvsps v2.2b1 and configure my package manager to ignore cvsps updates, but I haven't had any problems since.
