Subject: [PATCH] git-cvsimport-script: handling of tags

From: "H. Peter Anvin" <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 06 Sep 2005 10:36:01 -0700

This patch changes git-cvsimport-script so that it creates tag objects 
instead of refs to commits, and adds an option, -u, to convert 
underscores in branch and tag names to dots (since CVS doesn't allow 
dots in branches and tags.)

 	The 'HEAD' branch from CVS is imported to the 'origin' branch within
 	the git repository, as 'HEAD' already has a special meaning for git.
