cvs2svn Failing to Import Repository
I've just installed subversion 0.32.1 on Gentoo and want to bring over a
CVS repository. When I run /usr/bin/cvs2svn, I get a lot of errors like
this:
committing: Wed Nov 28 15:41:09 2001, over 0 seconds
adding or changing 1.10 : trunk/stuff/stuff.txt
sh: line 1: co: command not found
new revision: 16
committing: Thu Nov 29 09:52:00 2001, over 0 seconds
adding or changing 1.11 : trunk/stuff/stuff2.txt
sh: line 1: co: command not found
new revision: 17
I have a full install of CVS, so I can't figure out why the cvs2svn
script is not accessing /usr/bin/cvs properly...

Hi,
I'm crossposting to the users list, since that is where this question
belongs.
Anyway, the solution is to have rcs installed. The cvs2svn script uses rcs
to read the contents of your cvs repository.
bye,
Erik.
PS to Max Bowsher: maybe we should try to detect if we can execute rcs
before trying to run the conversion, erroring out early.

Look at the error message.
cvs2svn needs "co" NOT "cvs". Please read the cvs2svn README - specifically:
"Install RCS."
Max.
