cvs import error

Hi all,

I'm currently trying to import a CVS archive into git and hitting
problems.  The repo was cloned with cvssuck, and the import was run
with cvsps 2.1 and git-1.4.0, getting this (abbreviated, slightly
sanitized) output:

$ git cvsimport  -v -d ':local:/home/ramune/git-import'  -C .  FOO
WARNING: revision 1.21.2.3 of file BAR/BAZ/QUX on unnamed branch
<<snip lots of the same types of warnings for different files, multiple
<<times for quite a few of them>>
WARNING: revision 1.6.2.2 of file BAR/BAZ/FROBOZ on unnamed branch
invalid cache revision line 'file:X/Y/Z/A/B/C D E.F; D G.F; pre_rev:INITIAL; pos
t_rev:1.1; dead:0; branch_point:0
'|' D G.F'
DONE; creating master branch
fatal: refs/heads/origin: not a valid SHA1
fatal: master: not a valid SHA1
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tr
ee.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
fatal: Not a valid object name HEAD
checkout failed: 256
$ exit

The import bombs out on the same place every time, with or without cvsps
being passed -x and/or --no-cvs-direct.

The source tree's proprietary, so I can't give snippets or examples,
unforutnately.  Has anyone come across this issue before and resovled it?

If so, how?

Thanks,
