Umm, actually, no, cvsimport doesn't do merges. Dunno where Martin got his

I have intentionally kept keyword expansion on when I wrote the code,
because matching up the files from CVS with files gathered from tarballs,
Debian repositories, and what-not, becomes a whole lot easier that way.

For me, that's a major use case, esp. with CVS getting confused about its
tags (as people haphazardly copy whole subtrees from one CVS repository
into a different one).
