Greetings,
I tried to git-cvsimport an existing project but there seemed to be something wrong with the result. On closer inspection I noticed that contents of files that had never been modified in trunk corresponded to revision 1.1 instead of the tip of the vendor branch in the generated master and origin branches.
In other words (using zsh):
Show 18 quoted lines
> mkdir test > cd test > mkdir repo > export CVSROOT=`pwd`/repo > cvs init > mkdir foo > cd foo > echo lahna > kala.txt > cvs import -m "Initial vendor import." foo vendor vendor-v1 > cd .. > rm -r foo > cvs co foo > cd foo > cvs up -rvendor > echo hauki >! kala.txt > cvs commit -m "Fake 2nd. vendor import." > cvs up -A > cat kala.txt
hauki
Show 5 quoted lines
> cd .. > git-cvsimport -d $CVSROOT -C foo.git foo > cd foo.git > git-checkout -f master > cat kala.txt
lahna
I would have expected to get "hauki" from that last "cat kala.txt" as well. Is this a known problem or a feature? In either case, how should I work around it?
