I'm also wondering we it currently doesn't depend on dev-util/cvs, though using CVS for conversion seems preferable of using RCS:

[..]
    --use-cvs           use CVS to extract revision contents (slower than
                        --use-rcs but more reliable) (default)
    --use-rcs           use RCS to extract revision contents (faster than
                        --use-cvs but fails in some cases)
[..]

What are your reasons for these choices?
Comment 2 Sebastian Pipping gentoo-dev 2010-06-16 01:01:55 UTC
This seems like a good chance to gain a bit more practical experience to me - taking over.

I have introduced two new use flags to fix this:

+  16 Jun 2010; Sebastian Pipping <sping@gentoo.org> cvs2svn-2.2.0.ebuild,
+  cvs2svn-2.3.0.ebuild, metadata.xml:
+  Add git and bazaar use flags for bug #313701

On ppc-macos I package use masked git in file
profiles/prefix/darwin/macos/10.5/ppc/package.use.mask
A ChangeLog entry was added, too.
