I do not work that way.  I am a trust-but-verify kind of person.

So I dug up the old ones and the discussion.  The series looks
fine.

cvsimport: have default merge regex allow for dashes in the branch name

  You can extend the default with -M anyway, but I guess the
  default pattern can be loosened like this without increasing
  the risk of false hits, so probably it is Ok.

cvsimport: allow for multiple -M options

  Ok.

cvsimport: document that -M can be used multiple times

  Ok, except that "can be used seveval times" should probably be
  "can be used more than once".

cvsimport: configure Getopt::Long to bundle options

  Ok.  Why isn't bundling the default, I have to wonder...
