Re: SymDiffParent in cvs2svn 0.51

Not that this is any of my business, I actually agree with #2, but #3
sounds too protectionist. You're assuming too much. Lev might actually
be doing a good job promoting Subversion in his own way, and the
principal difference with cvs2svn[.py] that I see is that the .pl
provides more controls for users. They may choose to use it.
I can understand your disappointment though because of the confusion
created by this script.

Sergey.
