I'm about to transition a project from CVS to Subversion, and would really
like to have *some* of the ViewCVS functionality in place, even if it's
currently nonoptimal and fragile.

If URLs are going to change around, I can tell people not to deep-link
or bookmark for the time being. What else should I watch out for, using
the current version?

In particular, what happens with the repository lockups you describe?
ViewCVS stops working? The entire repository stops working? How do you
unwedge it when it gets in such a state?

Many thanks, and good luck coping with the whizziness. :-)
