Hm, I'm not sure I follow, but I think it'd be best to just create the
empty branches if possible, and then use cvs-import.sh with the actual
packages from download.fedora.us to bring in the contents. There are
some differences between the current devel/ and the older distro
branches in all of them. When the branches are there, I can take care
of the imports.
You can think of "branching" as basically a "cp -r $src $dst". In most
cases, we branch the devel/ directory as FC-3/ (kind of like a snapshot).
For things like RHL-9 and FC-1 and whatnot, "devel/" might be too
comples/advanced/whatever. subsequent cvs-imports into those branches will
clear things out, so this is only a matter of pedantery as far as choosing
the initial branch point.
