[PATCH v3 0/5] Add more tests of cvsimport

[Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>]

@Junio, sorry for the screwup.  The attached patch series definitely
works on my machine (Linux, cvsps 2.1).

Please note that the new tests only check the very basic minimal
functionality of a conversion tool: that all of the CVS branches are
present, and that the tips of the branches have the same content as
those in the original CVS repository.  So far they cover perhaps 5% of
the cvs2svn/cvs2git test repository.

I am convinced that robust cvsps-based repository conversion is so
fundamentally impossible [1] that I am not interested in working on
it.  If people absolutely need incremental conversions, then let them
struggle on.  But let them be warned :-)

Cheers,
Michael
