Yes. I want to submit git-fast-import to the main Git project and ask Junio to bring it in.

However right now I feel like the code isn't up-to-snuff and won't pass peer review on the Git mailing list. So I wanted to spend a little bit of time cleaning it up before asking Junio to carry it in the main distribution. My pack mmap window code is actually part of that cleanup.

I think the goal of this thread is to try and merge the ideas behind Jon's modified cvs2svn into the core cvs2svn, possibly causing cvs2svn to be renamed to cvs2notcvs (or some such) and having a slightly more modular output format so Git, Monotone and Subversion can all benefit from the difficult-to-do-right changeset generation logic.
