cvs-fast-export analyzes a collection of RCS files and, when possible,
|
||
|
emits an equivalent history in the form of a git fast-import stream.
|
||
|
Not all possible histories can be rendered this way; the program tries
|
||
|
to emit useful warnings when it can't.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A wrapper script called cvsconvert runs a conversion to git and
|
||
|
looks for content mismatches with the original CVS.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The analysis stage of this code originally travelled as "parsecvs" and
|
||
|
was written by Keith Packard in early 2006. It was briefly maintained by
|
||
|
Bart Massey before passing to Eric S. Raymond in late 2012.
