One thing that bothers me in the cvs2svn algorithm is that is not stable in its decisions about where the branching point is -- run the import twice at different times and it may tell you that the branching point has moved.
Huh? Really? Why is that? I don't see reasons for such a thing happening when studying the algorithm.
For sure the proposed dependency-resolving algorithm which does not rely on timestamps does not have that problem.
