Dear diary, on Wed, Oct 26, 2005 at 05:35:41AM CEST, I got a letter where Martin Langhoff <martin.langhoff@gmail.com> told me that...

Can I then import from the CVS incrementally later? I guess from the cvsimport code that it just tries to always import everything but the already imported commits get the same hashes so it magically imports "incrementally"... (The code could use some descriptive comments, it is rather spaggetish.)

If someone really desperately needs this, BTW, you might be able to merge two Monotone branches (.git and .cvssync) to get two-way incremental GIT and CVS interface, and then do that through Monotone. ;-))
