One of my items on my long term plan is to move from CVSNT to Git.  I am 
so tired of CVSNT's blowing up a code merge, usually comments.  I have 
about 22,000 files being versioned at the moment.  We have been using 
CVSNT since 1993 or so.  Some files have over 600+ versions so the move 
will not be trivial.

There are only three of us software developers here so we do not have 
many code merge problems.
