Ah, ok. I guess unpacking isn't what I need to do. I'm quite new to git and don't really understand the internals yet. Anyway, cvs2git produced 2 .dat files that I'm trying to import into a git repository using the following commands:

git init cat cvs2svn-tmp/git-blob.dat cvs2svn-tmp/git-dump.dat | git fast-import

I'm following the instructions from here: http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/cvs2git.html

It looks like the objects have been added to the repository but that no branches have been created.

Any idea how to create a branch and add the 66000 objects to it?
