I have 450,000 files in a folder that need to be imported into cvs.  The

The files were developed on Windows and have windows eol's.  When I try
to import anything "cvs import" I get a bad error:

cvs [import aborted]: received abort signal
cvs: /usr/local/src/cvs-1.11.21-v3/src/import.c:610:

That's not even the 450,000 files.  Googling has not explained that
error.

Not helping with the error, but thought I'd ask anyway. Do you understand the difference between "cvs add" then "cvs commit", and "cvs import" ?

It might not be the case for you, but I have found that a lot of beginner run a "cvs import" when really they simply want to "add" their files to the repository.
