Back to search · Project homepage

Description

cvs2svn is a tool to migrate as much information as possible from an existing CVS repository on a local filesystem to a new Subversion or GIT repository. It is able to infer information about changesets by looking at which files were committed together and attempts to reconstruct as much of your CVS repository's history as possible. Intermediate data is stored to on-disk databases so that cvs2svn can convert very large CVS repositories using a reasonable amount of RAM. Conversions are organized as multiple passes and can be restarted at an arbitrary pass in the case of problems.
