Hi Gordon,
I have enabled "blame". I'm glad to see that Git is catching on around the Drupal community. I hope some day to be able to look back at CVS as only a bad memory ;)
Yes that would be nice, but if something like git were to be adopted then we would still offer CVS as a entry level so people can easily commit stuff with having the ease of learning git.
And yeah, it is big. It took hours to import it with git cvsimport, but amazingly, the whole repository only takes up 15MB, which is really impressive to me, since it includes the entire CVS repository will themes, images and code with a lot of changes these 8 years. That's like 2MB per year.
That is so cool, I need to check this out more.
I'm afraid that we won't be so lucky with the contributions repository, but if we ever were to switch to Git or something like it, it would be madness to continue to have all 1000+ modules in the same repository - it's maddening enough already ;)
Yes I have been thinking about this, and I think that we would need to break each of the projects out into there own repositories, so they would be easier to maintain, and divide up the permissions. I really like git a lot, and I would be interested in collaborating on this with you. Gordon.

Hi,
This is great. I have a git mirror of the e-Commerce cvs and this looks great.
I did try and make a drupal mirror but it would not import it because it was so big.
It would be also nice if you can turn on blame which is like annotate.
See what I have done at http://git.drupalecommerce.org

Forgive me my shameless self-promotion, but I'd like to draw attention to my newly created Git-mirror of cvs.drupal.org
Git ( http://git.or.cz/ ) is a great version control system that I use to keep my Drupal-sites up-to-date, so a complete mirroring of Drupals CVS with tags and branches and all is a great step forward - for me at any rate.
I've made a longer blog post about it here: http://mikkel.hoegh.org/blog/2008/a_git_mirror_for_drupal_cvs
The repository is here: http://git.lion47.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi
