$something$ are "keywords" in CVS speak. Tags are "cvs tag" type operations that put "human labels" on a specific set of files (like REL7_1BETA2, etc). It's the cvs tags, not keywords that are causing cvsps the pain (and thus git cvsimport). fromcvs doesn't try and import tags at all, so it happens to avoid that that tag problem completely. I haven't tried to figure out exactly what tag it is, or what file(s) the tags are problematic on yet, because it takes repeated munging/cvsps runs to figure out, and I haven' had the time yet... But just blindkly removing all the REL7_1* tags "worked for me"... a. -- Aidan Van Dyk Create like a god, [EMAIL PROTECTED] command like a king, http://www.highrise.ca/ work like a slave.
