Are you sure "-s ours" is what you are looking for? If you are on branch master and use `git merge -s ours no-gnus`, it will effectively bring no-gnus' history in, but discard _all_ changes from no-gnus.

I sent you an email a while ago...

Yeah, that was just for creating the branch and stuff. You should just
have to have done "cvs checkout no-gnus" to get the No Gnus branch.
Nothing further would have been necessary, I think?
Anyway, anybody know what's the best way to clean this up? Does git
have a total "rollback" feature? Or is it better to just apply
reverse-patches to the No Gnus branch?
And the ma-gnus branch has to be deleted, but that's easy, I think. I
think I saw that somewhere...
