Because the theme of the topic does not have anything to do with fixing the deepening of shallow clones nor giving an extended error message from non-fast-forward git-push, I queued the series after reverse-rebasing onto old db/vcs-helper~8, in order to keep the topic branch pure, instead of merging unrelated topics from maint, master or next into it. The result merged in 'pu' obviously has to match what you expected by applying the patches on top of 'next', and I am reasonably sure it does.

Johan's cvs-helper series were depending on the previous iteration of this series, but I thought it is being rerolled, so I'd drop it from pu for now.
