I don't use cvs2git. Do you? Would you recommend it?
git-cvsimport is the basis of my simple scripts.
This may have happened because the repo had denynonfastforwards = false
and because my script tries to work as well with sourceforge-layout
CVS repositories, which lack the extra $module/$module hierarchy
found in the savannah CVS repositories. An early version may have
failed to adapt and imported both emacs and emacs/emacs.
In any case, I've moved emacs.git aside and re-pushed into a clean
repo, and that has fixed it.
Also, I've found that after running git-cvsimport, sometimes there is no
"master" branch. I've manually run the few required commands to do what
git-cvsimport should have done. Haven't yet found time to investigate;
part of the problem is that importing emacs takes several hours, and
it's only at the end that git-cvsimport might be misbehaving.
