OK, so I took a gander at the git repositories out there, namely the
"official" one (I'll call gpo) and the "original" (I'll call git):
gpo: from git://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git
git: from git://repo.or.cz/PostgreSQL.git
For each branch, I diffed them to a cvs export of that sticky tag they
are on. Diffs are available here:
http://people.ifax.com/~aidan/pg/pg-git-cvs/
Since I run the git version of the conversion, I took a close look at
that one... All the differences in it (excpet for the 7.3 ones I'll
mention in a minute) are $Keyword$ differences, stuff like:
-# My2Pg \$Revision: 1.27 $ \translated dump
+# My2Pg \$Revision$ \translated dump
and
-/* $OpenBSD$ */
+/* $OpenBSD: blf.c,v 1.3 2000/06/17 23:36:22 provos Exp $ */
Here, - is git and + is cvs, so you can see, my conversion has some even
backwards... And some are ugly:
-Received: from sss2.sss.pgh.pa.us (sss.pgh.pa.us [209.114.166.2]) by
renoir.op.net (o1/$Revision: 1.2 $) with ESMTP id BAA27265 for
<pg...@candle.pha.pa.us>; Sat, 10 Jun 2000 01:16:07 -0400 (EDT)
+Received: from sss2.sss.pgh.pa.us (sss.pgh.pa.us [209.114.166.2]) by

<pg...@candle.pha.pa.us>; Sat, 10 Jun 2000 01:16:07 -0400 (EDT)
My conversion left the $Revision$ alone in the mail message, and the cvs
checkout munged it... Actually, notice how stuff like
src/backend/optimizer/plan/README has keywords in it that CVS munches too,
ugh!)
And the $Log$ Keyword make for some huge differences ;-(
But there seems to be some files "missing" in my REL7_3_STABLE, namely:
pg-git-REL7_3_STABLE.diff-diff --git a/contrib/xml/README.pgxml
b/contrib/xml/README.pgxml
pg-git-REL7_3_STABLE.diff-diff --git a/contrib/xml/pgxml.sql.in
b/contrib/xml/pgxml.sql.in
pg-git-REL7_3_STABLE.diff-diff --git a/contrib/xml/pgxml_dom.sql.in
b/contrib/xml/pgxml_dom.sql.in
pg-git-REL7_3_STABLE.diff-diff --git
a/src/bin/pg_controldata/po/zh_CN.po b/src/bin/pg_controldata/po/zh_CN.po
pg-git-REL7_3_STABLE.diff-diff --git a/src/bin/pg_resetxlog/po/zh_CN.po
b/src/bin/pg_resetxlog/po/zh_CN.po
pg-git-REL7_3_STABLE.diff-diff --git a/src/port/getopt.c
b/src/port/getopt.c
pg-git-REL7_3_STABLE.diff-diff --git
a/src/test/regress/expected/geometry-bsd-precision.out
b/src/test/regress/expected/geometry-bsd-precision.out
I'm not really sure why, I can look into it if it's important...
But in all, the differneces are small and otherwise all keyword related:

But the gpo conversion seems to be in pretty bad shape:

And actually looking at the history of the gpo repo, the branches are all
messed up with "merges" and stuff that I'm not sure where they are coming
from... 8.2, 8.3, and master(HEAD) are all the same as my gpo repo, but the
back branchs are very bad...
