Both will convert HEAD properly, but neither has branch support.  I
used the fromcvs/togit tool (which the estpak mirror uses) to
convert the trees I put on Github, but I found out that that tool
doesn't handle all of the branches in OpenBSD's CVS tree properly
which caused some files to be missing or at incorrect revisions on
-stable branches.

I hoped to have properly converted trees on Github for easy
cloning/forking but I got lost trying to add branch support to my
conversion tool that could properly do OpenBSD's trees.
