cvs2git currently drops mode information. I've been bitten by this behaviour twice already. The patch below fixes that, though not very cleanly.
skimo -- git-cvs2git: propagate mode information
Let cvs checkout in a temporary directory rather than using the pipe option to avoid loss of mode information.
