This is a private local repository. git-cvsimport starts a local "cvs server" for this.

I tried to create a minimal repo, that would trigger the same behaviour, but didn't succeed. My current guessing is, that this happened in cooperation with "cvsps" caching. (cvsps is a tool used by git-cvsimport).

I will move the cvsps cache for my problematic repo out of the way and try a git-cvsimport from scratch to verify that the above mentioned issue is related to cvsps caching. But I still think, that handling all cvs pserver replies should be done anyway in git-cvsimport (when it relies on this mode of operation).
