Hi. Here's what I'm trying to do:

In gitcvs:
    [il@basin documentation]$ git mv SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_1.doc SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_2.doc
    (edit the file)
    [il@basin documentation]$ git commit ... SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_2.doc
    ...
    $ git log --stat -n 1
    commit b04fa43c9f1374cf0ea5f9bf88024282414b0a0c
    Date:   Wed Aug 1 12:50:53 2012 +0400

OK So far

    $ git cvsexportcommit -w ../../cvs/SAP -u -p -k -c b04fa43c9f1374cf0ea5f9bf88024282414b0a0c
    Checking if patch will apply
    cvs update: nothing known about `documentation/SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_2.doc'
    cvs status: nothing known about `documentation/SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_2.doc'
    Huh? Status 'Unknown' reported for unexpected file 'no file SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_2.doc'
    Applying
    error: the patch applies to 'documentation/SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_1.doc' (e0c6cf56bd58ce3b1a8b8e00bfd20f75f89110f7), which does not match the current contents.
    error: documentation/SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_1.doc: patch does not apply

I compared SIC_SAP1_0_ADM_dv1_1.doc.orig and the file from HEAD~1 . They are equal. Why error?
