Subject: [PATCH] cvsimport: Limit the log string to 32k
Message-ID: <20050630163850.GU10850@kiste.smurf.noris.de>
In-Reply-To: <20050630145528.GA18553@pc117b.liacs.nl>

Teach the new cvsimport script to chop the log string's trailing whitespace.

Limit the log string to 32k, in order to be compatible with the old
cvs2git program.
