Greetings! Yes, thanks so much, it works as you state without -e ssh. Here is my script at present:
#!/bin/bash rsync -av vcs.sv.gnu.org::sources/gcl/ ./gclr/ cvs2git --blobfile=b --dumpfile=d --username=cvs2git --symbol-hints=sh ./gclr/ cat d | ./gcl.committers >do rm -rf gcl.git mkdir gcl.git cd gcl.git git init --bare cat ../b ../do | git fast-import ../git-move-refs.py git gc --prune=now cd .. rm -rf gcl git clone ./gcl.git Still having trouble getting cvs2git to identify branchpoints, even with a symbol-hints file. But getting closer!
