Description Christoph Junghans (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-12-31 18:50:51 UTC
CVSps project news

3.3 @ 2012-12-30
  There's a new -A option that does author-name mapping in the expected way.
  There's a new -R option that writes out a revision map.
  cvsps run from within a repository directory will do the right thing.
  A bug that could garble translations of branchy repositories has been fixed.

3.2 @ 2012-12-24
  DEPRECATION WARNING: non-fast-export reporting may be removed in the future.
  The tool now always runs in cvs_direct client mode for better performance.
  Multiple tags per revision will be reported (previously only the latest was).
  Local CVS commands are no longer used.  Caching and -x are gone.
  The ever-malfunctioning -A option has been removed.

3.1 @ 2012-12-22
  If the CVS version is new enough to do commitids, they are used.
  Removed the --bkcvs option, as bitkeeper's kernel CVS export is gone.
  Can now handle versions that use CVSACL.

3.0 @ 2012-12-20
  New maintainer is Eric S. Raymond.
  The --fast-export option allows dumping the history as a git import stream.

I'll push most of our local hacks upstream a bit later.
THanks for the report!
