Subject: [PATCH] Add -k kill keyword expansion option to git-cvsimport

From: Martin Langhoff <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2005 19:10:09 +1200

Early versions of git-cvsimport defaulted to using preexisting keyword
expansion settings. This change preserves compatibility with existing cvs
imports and allows new repository migrations to kill keyword expansion.

Should improve our chances of detecting merges and reduce imported
repository size.

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