AFAICS, the commits in the 8.3 history *after* that point are sane;
at least there's one for each actual 8.3 commit in the CVS logs.
Before that point, though, the history shown for 8.3 seems to include
all HEAD commits as well. The merge commit is probably cleaning up
those incorrectly included HEAD commits.
I concur that we gotta abort the git conversion. This looks like it
might be a pretty simple bug in the converter, but we can't block
Postgres development while we look for it.
