Heh. I was just preparing mail about the same problem.
It seems that git-cvsimport-script really don't likes branches in CVS.
I have attached simple script that demonstrates this.
On my machine it gives:
=============================
snake@home2:/tmp$ ./testscript
cvs checkout: Updating project
cvs add: scheduling file `a' for addition
cvs add: use `cvs commit' to add this file permanently

=============================
Is it a planned behaivoir or cvsimport script were just recently broken?
