Being prodded by this, I decided to take another look at why cvsps doesn't work on PostgreSQL CVS repository...
It happens that it's choking on a bunch of the various REL7_1 tags... And, the fromcvs converter, which works fine, just happens to *not* support importing tags - go figure ;-) So, my solution - strip them all out, and low-and-behold, cvsps works (and thus, so does git-cvsimport). So, for people having problems with the "cvs repository", try and eliminate the REL7_1* tags, and see if the problems go away... Here's my ugly 30 second perl to "remove" the REL7_* tags... Of course, git-cvsimport (with tags stripped) takes hours to convert the repository, rather than the couple 10s of minutes for fromcvs, but at least it works... a. -- Aidan Van Dyk Create like a god, [EMAIL PROTECTED] command like a king, http://www.highrise.ca/ work like a slave.
