There would be some disruption, because the current synchronization method is tied to GIT and CVS. But it wouldn't be too bad, since git-svn provides trivial bi-directional access. Any branches relative to the cvs-derived git repo could be migrated to a git repo converted from svn. Of course, any SHA1 references into the cvs-derived repo would be worthless (but they could theoretically be translated to point to the same objects in an svn-derived repo). >> If any of you would like to rely on this, please ensure that all >> of the files you care about are in the git repository.

Good to know it works. Thanks.
