I did a run with this and it works great.

I'm staring at the cvs2svn code now trying to figure out how to modify it without rewriting everything. I may just leave it all alone and build a table with cvs_file:rev to sha-1 mappings. It would be much more efficient to carry sha-1 throughout the stages but that may require significant rework.
