commit eb9c582b710dc48976b48eb2204218f6863bae9a
Author: Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org>

    Switch upstream git repository.
    
    Previously portable OpenSSH has synced against a conversion of OpenBSD's
    CVS repository made using the git cvsimport tool, but this has become
    increasingly unreliable.
    
    As of this commit, portable OpenSSH now tracks a conversion of the
    OpenBSD CVS upstream made using the excellent cvs2gitdump tool from
    YASUOKA Masahiko: https://github.com/yasuoka/cvs2gitdump
    
    cvs2gitdump is considerably more reliable than gitcvsimport and the old
    version of cvsps that it uses under the hood, and is the same tool used
    to export the entire OpenBSD repository to git (so we know it can cope
    with future growth).
    
    These new conversions are mirrored at github, so interested parties can
    match portable OpenSSH commits to their upstream counterparts.

    An unfortunate side effect of switching upstreams is that we must have
    a flag day, across which the upstream commit IDs will be inconsistent.
    The old commit IDs are recorded with the tags "Upstream-ID" for main
    directory commits and "Upstream-Regress-ID" for regress commits.
    
    To make it clear that the commit IDs do not refer to the same
    things, the new repository will instead use "OpenBSD-ID" and
    "OpenBSD-Regress-ID" tags instead.
    
    Apart from being a longwinded explanation of what is going on, this
    commit message also serves to synchronise our tools with the state of
    the tree, which happens to be:
    
    OpenBSD-ID: 9c43a9968c7929613284ea18e9fb92e4e2a8e4c1
    OpenBSD-Regress-ID: b33b385719420bf3bc57d664feda6f699c147fef
