Non-monotonically increasing dates
I'm using cvs2svn to import portions of an older CVS repository into
a new svn repository that has seen recent development. So doing the
normal cvs2svn creates revisions with dates that are older than
revisions that are numerically smaller.
Will this cause any problems if the -r {DATE} argument is not used.
Are any of the algorithms to search for revision number using {DATE}
dependent on monotonically increasing dates, and could they potentially
go into an infinite loop searching for the revision number?
Best,
Blair
