You can try set of patches to cvsps there (see GitLinks at Git Wiki, or git-cvsimport entry at InterfacesFrontendsAndTools) http://ydirson.free.fr/en/software/scm/cvsps.html Or you can try other CVS importers (see InterfacesForntendsAndTools): - parsecvs by Keith Packard, used to import X.Org, seems to be unmaintaned, requires access to *,v files (but check out cvssuck) - fromcvs by Simon 'corecode' Schubert, uses git-fast-import, IIRC in Ruby - cvs2svn has _experimental_ support for git export (git-fast-import?) so you can try this as well. -- Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git - To unsubscribe from this list: 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
