I have a small RCS repository which I would like to convert to git. It has no branches, no subdirs, and only a few files.
I found one conversion utility which claimed to convert directly from RCS to git, but it failed, and I no longer remember its name or how it failed, other than it sounded like more than a simple failure. I can convert it to CVS manually simply enough. I found git has a cvsimport command, but it complained that cvs didn't recognize the server command, and some hints I saw of requiring cvs 2 made me pause ... all I can see is cvs 1.12. Vague fuzzy old memories make me think there was a cvs 2, but I see nothing in gentoo for it. I am not excited at git expecting a cvs server; I'll be danged if I'm going to muck around with that just to convert a few files when git has direct access to the ,v files themselves. Anyone have any suggestions? Don't feed me google pages; I am asking for personal experience. It would also be interesting to know what this cvs 2 business is. It's hard to google for that ... -- ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._.
