Cool. Do you want to create a repository for lilypond now? I can
create one; it is temporarily at http://cvs.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/ .
Beware, that's a ZETA service ;)

That sounds good. It will probably takes days, because there're lots
of repos, and SV is already a loaded machine, but automatic conversion
sounds very good.

It may be difficult to keep a GIT repository in sync with CVS until
people actually start using it. Did you already try a repository
conversion? Can this be done?
