As you say, there may be nothing that needs doing other than decommissioning the bzr repo and changing documentation to point to the git one. Are you aware of any CVS conversion artifacts that should be cleaned up? I'm thinking of, in particular: 1. Unmerged commit cliques. 2. Out-of-place release tags. 3. Fossil CVS commit references in commit comments. If there is any of this sort of cruft, the time to fix it is before the git repo goes official. I have good tools for this. -- Eric S. Raymond
