I haven't tried this with the OpenBSD code base, but in a previous life I did a CVS to Git conversion starting with a repo that resembled OpenBSD's in many ways. The "solution" was to get to git by way of SVN. SVN was able to preserve branches/tags/etc. from CVS into SVN, and was then able to in turn be converted to git through SVN's git-compatibility layer (IIRC).
Whether this helps anyone out there... *shrug*
