No objections here, glad to see someone is still interested! Agreed that old branches are disposable, that a straight main branch cvs-to-git conversion is sufficient. Any objections to just doing it? It could be nice if someone (tm) were to pursue merging cgen into binutils proper, but that is a separate issue. What work would be required to achieve that, other than adding the cgen subdirectory to the binutils repo? As far as I can see, CGEN is officially still part of binutils, and you and Doug are listed as the domain maintainers in binutils/MAINTAINERS.
