+=head1 NAME
+
+GITCVS::log
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module provides very crude logging with a similar interface to
+Log::Log4perl
+
+=head1 METHODS
+
+=cut
+
+=head2 new
+
+Creates a new log object, optionally you can specify a filename here to
+indicate the file to log to. If no log file is specified, you can specify one
+later with method setfile, or indicate you no longer want logging with method
+nofile.
+
+Until one of these methods is called, all log calls will buffer messages ready
+to write out.
+
+=cut
+sub new
+{
+    my $class = shift;
+    my $filename = shift;
+
+    my $self = {};
+
+    bless $self, $class;
+
+    if ( defined ( $filename ) )
+    {
+        open $self->{fh}, ">>", $filename or die("Couldn't open '$filename' for writing : $!");
+    }
+
+    return $self;
+}
+
+=head2 setfile
+
+This methods takes a filename, and attempts to open that file as the log file.
+If successful, all buffered data is written out to the file, and any further
+logging is written directly to the file.
+
+=cut
+sub setfile
+{
+    my $self = shift;
+    my $filename = shift;
+
+    if ( defined ( $filename ) )
+    {
+        open $self->{fh}, ">>", $filename or die("Couldn't open '$filename' for writing : $!");
+    }
+
+    return unless ( defined ( $self->{buffer} ) and ref $self->{buffer} eq "ARRAY" );
+
+    while ( my $line = shift @{$self->{buffer}} )
+    {
+        print {$self->{fh}} $line;
+    }
+}
+
+=head2 nofile
+
+This method indicates no logging is going to be used. It flushes any entries in
+the internal buffer, and sets a flag to ensure no further data is put there.
+
+=cut
+sub nofile
+{
+    my $self = shift;
+
+    $self->{nolog} = 1;
+
+    return unless ( defined ( $self->{buffer} ) and ref $self->{buffer} eq "ARRAY" );
+
+    $self->{buffer} = [];
+}
+
+=head2 _logopen
+
+Internal method. Returns true if the log file is open, false otherwise.
+
+=cut
+sub _logopen
+{
+    my $self = shift;
+
+    return 1 if ( defined ( $self->{fh} ) and ref $self->{fh} eq "GLOB" );
+    return 0;
+}
+
+=head2 debug info warn fatal
+
+These four methods are wrappers to _log. They provide the actual interface for
+logging data.
+
+=cut
+sub debug { my $self = shift; $self->_log("debug", @_); }
+sub info  { my $self = shift; $self->_log("info" , @_); }
+sub warn  { my $self = shift; $self->_log("warn" , @_); }
+sub fatal { my $self = shift; $self->_log("fatal", @_); }
+
+=head2 _log
+
+This is an internal method called by the logging functions. It generates a
+timestamp and pushes the logged line either to file, or internal buffer.
+
+=cut
+sub _log
+{
+    my $self = shift;
+    my $level = shift;
+
+    return if ( $self->{nolog} );
+
+    my @time = localtime;
+    my $timestring = sprintf("%4d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d : %-5s",
+        $time[5] + 1900,
+        $time[4] + 1,
+        $time[3],
+        $time[2],
+        $time[1],
+        $time[0],
+        uc $level,
+    );
+
+    if ( $self->_logopen )
+    {
+        print {$self->{fh}} $timestring . " - " . join(" ",@_) . "\n";
+    } else {
+        push @{$self->{buffer}}, $timestring . " - " . join(" ",@_) . "\n";
+    }
+}
+
+=head2 DESTROY
+
+This method simply closes the file handle if one is open
+
+=cut
+sub DESTROY
+{
+    my $self = shift;
+
+    if ( $self->_logopen )
+    {
+        close $self->{fh};
+    }

+     "1." prefix),
+   - Complex CVS-compatible "special" revision number for
+     non-linear history (see comment below)
+   - git commit sha1 hash
+   - branch or tag name

+    # Overview of CVS revision numbers:
+    #
+    # General CVS numbering scheme:
+    #   - Basic mainline branch numbers: "1.1", "1.2", "1.3", etc.
+    #   - Result of "cvs checkin -r" (possible, but not really
+    #     recommended): "2.1", "2.2", etc
+    #   - Branch tag: "1.2.0.n", where "1.2" is revision it was branched
+    #     from, "0" is a magic placeholder that identifies it as a
+    #     branch tag instead of a version tag, and n is 2 times the
+    #     branch number off of "1.2", starting with "2".
+    #   - Version on a branch: "1.2.n.x", where "1.2" is branch-from, "n"
+    #     is branch number off of "1.2" (like n above), and "x" is
+    #     the version number on the branch.
+    #   - Branches can branch off of branches: "1.3.2.7.4.1" (even number
+    #     of components).
+    #   - Odd "n"s are used by "vendor branches" that result
+    #     from "cvs import".  Vendor branches have additional
+    #     strangeness in the sense that the main rcs "head" of the main
+    #     branch will (temporarily until first normal commit) point
+    #     to the version on the vendor branch, rather than the actual
+    #     main branch.  (FUTURE: This may provide an opportunity
+    #     to use "strange" revision numbers for fast-forward-merged
+    #     branch tip when CVS client is asking for the main branch.)
+    #
+    # git-cvsserver CVS-compatible special numbering schemes:
+    #   - Currently git-cvsserver only tries to be identical to CVS for
+    #     simple "1.x" numbers on the "main" branch (as identified
+    #     by the module name that was originally cvs checkout'ed).
+    #   - The database only stores the "x" part, for historical reasons.
+    #     But most of the rest of the cvsserver preserves
+    #     and thinks using the full revision number.
+    #   - To handle non-linear history, it uses a version of the form
+    #     "2.1.1.2000.b.b.b."..., where the 2.1.1.2000 is to help uniquely
+    #     identify this as a special revision number, and there are
+    #     20 b's that together encode the sha1 git commit from which
+    #     this version of this file originated.  Each b is
+    #     the numerical value of the corresponding byte plus
+    #     100.
+    #      - "plus 100" avoids "0"s, and also reduces the
+    #        likelihood of a collision in the case that someone someday
+    #        writes an import tool that tries to preserve original
+    #        CVS revision numbers, and the original CVS data had done
+    #        lots of branches off of branches and other strangeness to
+    #        end up with a real version number that just happens to look
+    #        like this special revision number form.  Also, if needed
+    #        there are several ways to extend/identify alternative encodings
+    #        within the "2.1.1.2000" part if necessary.
+    #      - Unlike real CVS revisions, you can't really reconstruct what
+    #        relation a revision of this form has to other revisions.
