I'm not sure I understand the question, but if you want to add meta-data to Git commits (e.g. "this Git commit is revision 42 in CVS repository foo"), then have a look at git-notes. It won't give you directly "reference to other VCS", but at least can be used as a storage mechanism to store these references. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/
