Git, Buildbot, and "Pragmatic Version Control Using Git"

So my first patch to buildbot was accepted and merged into the trunk (or whatever git's equivalent is).
So given my lack of getting git, I acquired (thanks to O'Reilly and baypiggies relationship with them) a review copy of "Pragmatic Version Control Using Git".
I'll be posting a review on Baypiggies Website when I've finished reading it.
As usual (being a Pragmatic Programmers book) this book is quite well written (well thus far up to chapter 3), and works step by step through git and how to use it. So I'm hoping to get Git soon.

My First Buildbot GIT checkin to github.com

After about 1/2 day of hacking and reading various docs on the web I got the hang of pulling updates from the main branch for buildbot. Using:
git remote add upstream git://github.com/mirkoboehm/buildbot.git

I'm hoping that's correct, and it did seem to pull in changes.
I added a new argument to the CVS buildstep checkout_options, so I can add -N to the generated cvs command line.

Since one client's CVS configuration has an alias specified which has multiple directories, and buildbot's generated command line uses -d, -N is required to get the alias to work properly.
I'm hoping the pull request is accepted and then I can have that client switch to the mainline of buildbot, rather than having to patch whenever they install.
