I mean I'm really interested into that, as git-cvsimport is really broken with the glibc CVS tree, and as the glibc CVSROOT is rsync-able, an incremental importer that has access to the CVSROOT RCS files is probably the most efficient way. Is there any link you can provide to me about these new features of cvs2svn ? -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madcoder@xxxxxxxxxx OOO http://www.madism.org
