I'd suggest tracking the git mirror instead; it does a pretty good job
of packaging up related file changes into single commits, as long as the
user committed them all at once with CVS.  Many people _don't_ do that,
of course, but that's largely for historical reasons, and hopefully they
can be convinced to start doing so.
