A while back I wrote CVSMan, which tries to be berkeley sup(8)
with CVS as the transport. I think git would work well here, but I
haven't yet generalized the code to support non-CVS SCMs (I certainly
have wanted to, it's the only thing I use CVS for anymore).
Like GIT, CVS doesn't do perms well. However, CVSMan handles
the perms via .cvsperms files.
