Sorry for noise again. I have found two bugs in cvsps that results in the wrong import to git. I tried to contact developer but it seems that his mail have no mailserver ATM. Since he has made some changes for git already - probably someone on this list have his new contact. Please tell me it or forward my mail to him. Thanks.

For the curious, here are the bugs:
1) some branches fork off too late - cvsps shifts brahches starts forward to 
the future
Example:

2) some branches are not detected at all, not recorded as patchsets and 
consequently not imported into git.
Example (branch "old"):
