"git-cvsimport – Salvage your data out of another SCM people love to hate"

Hello all,

The title of this post came from git-cvsimport's man page. Let's try to use it??

NOTE: We're gonna need cvsps 2.1 or higher in order to split cvs log into patch sets.

Once you have the address of the cvs project you wanna import, you just issue:

$ git-cvsimport -d "CVSROOT" "CVS_module"

Example:

$ git-cvsimport -d \
   ":pserver:anonymous@linux-usb.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/linux-usb" usbutils

And that's all, you just have to wait now ;-)

See y'all
