If you commit them to CVS in a branch for the effected projects, the tool we use to convert cvs2git creates a "delete commit" at the base of the branch to get rid of anything not tagged and branched from CVS. This could make a merge on the git side painful, and might force you to cherrypick your commit across (just an inconvenience, I know). Later, PW -- Paul Webster Hi floor. Make me a sammich! - GIR
