You certainly would think so, and I did as well, but available evidence indicates otherwise. I'm not sure how the repack got in there.

donnie@supernova ~ $ type git-cvsimport git-cvsimport is /usr/bin/git-cvsimport donnie@supernova ~ $ grep repack /usr/bin/git-cvsimport donnie@supernova ~ $

All I can think of is that I somehow OOM'd when I manually ran a repack and didn't notice it. But that should've at least made me unable to resume the cvsimport process, which happily kept chugging along later on.

Nope. I ran the exact cvsps flags you posted earlier to create it.

Thanks, Donnie
