Congratulations on leaving CVS

From

Hi,

It looks like your transition to git has been a success.  Your very
careful conversion from CVS to git and your exacting scrutiny of the
results are a great check that cvs2git is not doing anything completely
crazy.  I will soon release a version 2.4 of cvs2svn that includes the
many improvements that are in trunk, and your work has improved my
confidence that it is ready.

If nobody objects, I will add PostgreSQL to the list of famous projects
that have used the cvs2* tools to convert their repositories.  It's nice
to be able to help out a great project like yours, even if only in a
small way.

With this, I'll be unsubscribing from your mailing list.  Feel free to
contact me at the cvs2svn mailing list if you discover any more issues,
or if anybody would like to help out with the further development of the
cvs2svn family of tools.

Yours,
Michael

Thanks very much for your help.  It was invaluable.  Thanks also for
your patience.  I'm really glad we got through this conversion, and I
appreciate very much your help in making that happen.
