Jeroen, please don't do that. We had this discussion back in Feb 2007
on the maintainers list, please search for the thread named "Discourage
cvs-import (was: Re: Plan for tomorrows (20070222) FESCO meeting)".
Is using cvs-import for updating a package really discouraged?
It is *really* handy, compared to the series of single steps that are
to be done manually otherwise. Also, it does show a diff between old
and new spec and auxiliary files and gives you the possibility to
abort the import nowadays, so the main concern mentioned in that old
thread doesn't seem to be valid anymore.
Regards,
Thomas
