git cvsimport: new tags not imported on second cvsimport
I made the initial import:
git cvsimport -d :pserver:user@blackbird:10010/data/cvs/webgui -C SAP -r cvs -k SAP
edited .git/config:
[cvsimport]
module = SAP
r = cvs
d = :pserver:user@blackbird:10010/data/cvs/webgui
did some commits to CVS and created a new tag
Then ran:
git cvsimport -ak
To synchronize with CVS.
The new commits were imported, but the new tag wasn't.
I made initial import again to another directory and the new tag was in it.

cvsimport never reconsiders changesets that were already imported, so if the tag was added to such a changeset it won't be seen.

Do you mean, if I tag BEFORE cvsimport, it will be imported? How to make the git repo "forget" the last cvsimport?

If you tag one of the new commits it will be imported.

Reset the branch back to before the import.

Reset the branch back to before the import.
Does the resulting history created by cvsimport after resetting a branch back to an older point exactly match the history before resetting (obviously modulo the tag that has been added since the original import)?
I recall that cvsimport tried hard to be reproducible and it should work, but I haven't run cvsimport myself for a long time, so...

Usually it does.

As long as cvsps detects the same changesets.
