Sorry, I should have mentioned that in my original post. I tested this out with some of the framework patches also. The patches I tested do apply fine after the move to git.

I checked and the patches provided for these projects just apply fine!
Thx Paul, this saves quite some pain :)

Ok great. I'll try with the test repo that Kim had created and will
report.

In preparation for the move of p2 to a git repo (see Tom's
mail from yesterday), I have been thinking about releasing
large pending patches into separate branches in CVS so that
they are automatically carried over into the new git repo,
and thus saves the author some nightmare related to dealing
with reapplying the patch. What do you think about this?
Once your git repo is online and the projects imported into
your workspace, the patches *should* apply from within eclipse
just as before.
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,
