CVS to Bazaar importer

Bug Description

RCS/CVS have keyword substitution mecanism, but Bazaar doesn't seems to have this mecanism.
After importing module with CVS branches, merge get all lines with keywords and values in conflict ...
Maybe add an option to remove keyword values by using '-kk' option on checkout command during migration.

Bazaar now has key word support, ideally we should convert RCS keywords to Bazaar keywords (where the names don't match up already).

Changed in bzr-cvsps-import:
status: New → Triaged

It only has keyword support if you have the bzr-keywords plugin. Until
that is in core, it makes sense to delay.

Though really, cvsps is not the one-true-way for importing anymore. Not
nearly as maintained as the 'fastimport' methods.
