I've cleaned up the git repo, and re-enabled the mirror script. From
what I can tell it works fine. In theory you will need to use force
mode if you pulled the broken commit that was removed (the one with
the wrong message), but it seems this is not necessarily required.

As for the future, please avoid doing any "cvs admin" activity if
possible, and if it's done let's specifically coordinate with the git
mirror script, to make sure things work smoothly.
