Hi Steve,

        I've been playing with git and I've been most impressed with
it.  I look forward to using it for real work. :)

        I got git-cvsserver up and running this morning.  For anon
CVS access, I think it is okay.

        I don't recall there are any tricks you can use with CVS_SERVER
when doing pserver (as that is really only for :ext:, :fork:, or
:server: access methods), however, why not run the git-cvsserver
on a different port say 2402 (I haven't tried this though)?
Clients will be able to set the port either by environment
variable CVS_CLIENT_PORT directly in the -d option (or CVSROOT):
[:method:][[user][:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[port]]/path/to/repository

        Hope that helps,

                        -Ales
