I have an application that, unfortunately, is both closed source and does
not support GIT natively. However, it DOES support CVS. It also makes
heavy use of CVS's locking features (watch/edit).

git-cvsserver (or at least the version I have, 1.5.6.5), does not seem to
support "cvs watch" or "cvs edit".

Attempting to do a "cvs watch" results in:

cvs watch on *xml
server doesn't support gzip-file-contents
Unknown command watch-on at /usr/bin/git-cvsserver line 198, <STDIN> line 49.
cvs [watch aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)

Likewise:
cvs edit *xml
server doesn't support gzip-file-contents
Unknown command Notify 7200.xml at /usr/bin/git-cvsserver line 198,
<STDIN> line 6.
cvs [edit aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)


Are there any plans on supporting these functions?
