Then you want a single git repo/tree/project. The thing is how to work through your mangled CVS history. Two options there... - Don't. Import from after the last directory reorg or from your last interesting release. Keep the cvs tree for people who really want to dig into the past. this has several advantages, as initial checkouts will be faster, import times shorter, less pain overall. - Mangle import to match your reorganizations: - Generate the cvsps output file - Duplicate/copy files in the cvs repo so that files are in both places if you've been mving them around. - Mangle the cvsps output file from each reorg onwards. This is nasty, but it will define the history that cvsimport sees. cheers, martin - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
