I am getting following error while converting the CVS repository to SVN repository using cvs2svn

Question

Hi,

I am getting this error while while giving this command:

 cvs2svn --trunkonly --svnrepo /path/to/new/svn /path/to/existed/cvs/repo

The error i am getting is

   Error summary:
   ERROR: No RCS files found
   Are you absolutely certain you are pointing cvs2svn
   at a CVS repository?

I found that the my repository is CVSNT. so the above may not be working. Can anybody please give me some idea how to covert those repositories into SVN?

Answer 1

As the error says: The path /path/to/existed/cvs/repo is probably wrong. Try again with the directory which contains CVSROOT.
