Hi All,


I am migrating my CVS repository to GIt. As I have multiple repository I
want to start multiple session for cvs2git,but it failed to start. I
received cvs2svn.lock file error ? Is there any workaround to start multiple
cvs2git session (which migrate the CVS directory) ??

Thanks in advance...

Didn't I already mention that cvs2git questions should go to the cvs2svn
mailing list?

You can run cvs2git multiple times simultaneously; you just need to
ensure that each one has its own temporary directory.  You can do this
either with the --tmpdir=PATH option or by starting the instances in
separate directories.

Hi Michael,

I apologize. I have not realized if you already inform me before this. next
onwards I will move to cvs2svn mailing list.

Thanks for your reply.
