Failure in cvs2svn
Hi,
I am trying to import a CVS project into an existing SVN project. If I
use cvs2svn, with default settings except for --existing-svnrepos, and
import into a newly created SVN respoitory it works fine.
If I try to import into my existing project, which has many revisions, I
get the following error in pass 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
----- pass 8 -----
Starting Subversion Repository.
Starting Subversion r1 / 124
Starting Subversion r2 / 124
ERROR: svnadmin failed with the following output while loading the dumpfile:
svn: File already exists: filesystem 'testgt/db', transaction '328-2',
path 'trunk'
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am posting this here under the buddy system prior to filing a bug.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Finnegan

You're right. I didn't look closely enough at the original post --
mine were caught in pass 1 as well.
oh well,

Curious. I had a few like that, too (caused by people manually
mishandling the CVS repository). But those were caught as errors in
pass 1.

I ran into this when doing my cvs2svn conversion. For me, it was
because I had a file in a folder and the "same" file in that folder's
Attic sub-folder. In other words, the file existed, got deleted, and
then got added again so there are two "entries" for that file name in
a folder even though one of them is "deleted" as far as CVS is
concerned.
/somefolder
somefile.c,v
Attic/
somefile.c,v
hth,
stephen
