Convert CVSNT to SVN

Is there any rel开发者_StackOverflow社区iable way to convert CVSNT to SVN?

You are right, cvs2svn is not reliable in this case, as the CVS FAQ mentions:

CVSNT is a version control system that started out by adding support for running CVS under Windows NT. Since then it has made numerous extensions to the RCS file format, to the point where CVS compatibility does not imply CVSNT compatibility with any degree of certainty.

cvs2svn might happen to successfully convert a CVSNT repository, especially if the repository has never had any CVSNT-only features used on it, but this use is not supported and should not be expected to work.

If you want to experiment with converting a CVSNT repository, then please consider the following suggestions:

• Use cvs2svn's --use-cvs option.
• Use CVSNT's version of the cvs executable (i.e., ensure that the first cvs program in your $PATH is the one that came with CVSNT).
• Carefully check the result of the conversion before you rely on it, even if the conversion completed without any errors or warnings.

That being said, try first with the --use-cvs option: it has been reported to work (even though you still need to carefully check the result).
