cvs2svn/cvs2git [1] can now convert directly to a git-fast-import format
dumpfile, which should be importable using bzr-fastimport.

For some reason there has been very little feedback from the bzr
community about how well this works.  If this *doesn't* work for you and
the fault seems to be on the cvs2svn side, please report your problems
to the cvs2svn mailing list.  If it *does* for you, we'd like to hear
that too!
