Sourceware.org supplies git mirrors to a small number of CVS-based
projects.  If there is more than token interest in this, please make
the request on overseers@sourceware.org.

(FWIW, your proposed workflow for a git mirror seems to me a bit
clumsy.  For our systemtap git/cvs mirror, there is no problem with
using native git for development (git pull/commit/branch/merge etc.)
and having a CVS working tree only for final cvs commit purposes.)
