Maybe "ovcs", for Other, Overaged, Obscure or Outrageous VCS?

Other than that, I agree with Thomas that a single command group for all
import/export/push/pull/sync mechanisms to/from other VCSen is plenty.
It's not like we have such an overwhelming amount of conversion commands.

(I'd also love to see the underscore in cvs_import and git_export
vanish. But that's another issue..)

I absolutely agree.
