The order choosen by cvs to display commit is not stable when the tests are run
under heavy CPU/IO load. This leads to irrelevant failures of the test suite.
This changeset filters four lines impacted by this instability. The result of
the conversion is still verified.
For a CVS repository checked out with "cvs co .", the prefix used to strip of
what we get from CVS was previously erroneously set to "repopath/.".
We now prevent the dot to be added.

Previously the parent was determined by the last changeset where the branched
file was changed even if the branch is based on an earlier revision.
