I went for multiple repos, having one repo per module.

No, I just scribbled together some lines for me here. But I'm happy to
share this in case anybody else might be interested. You need to have git
with cvs support (cvsps), obviously.

My cvs checkout resides in ~/husky. I used this to get the module names to import:

---

zsh/2 393 % cat import.sh 
#!/usr/local/bin/zsh

export CVS_RSH=ssh
for d in `ls -d ~/husky/[a-z]*`
do
        mod=`basename $d`
        echo start working on $mod
        git cvsimport -C $mod -p "-x" -v -r cvs -k -d
:ext:gerritkuehn{at}husky.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/husky $mod
        pushd $mod
        git config cvsimport.module $mod
        git config cvsimport.r cvs
        git config cvsimport.d
:ext:gerritkuehn{at}husky.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/husky
        popd
        echo finished working on $mod
done

You have to adopt this to your local filesystem structure and the correct
-d option for you, of course.

Importing the whole stuff took ages, something like 12h on my system, I
think. However, once it is there, updating is faster and easier:

---

zsh/2 394 % cat update.sh 
#!/usr/local/bin/zsh

export CVS_RSH=ssh
for d in *
do
        mod=`basename $d`
        if [ -d $mod ]
        then
                echo start updating $mod
                pushd $mod
                git cvsimport
                popd
                echo finished updating $mod
        fi
done
---


I did not look into pushing back changes from the git repo to the cvs so
far, but I think it should be possible.
