According to git-cvsimport(1):
'git cvsimport uses cvsps version 2, which is considered deprecated; it does not work with cvsps version 3 and later'
@Michal: do you think we should downgrade?
If you are willing to maintain a software deprecated upstream, why not? But I don't thing SUSE as a distributor should do such things. Reading NEWS [1], version 3.0 have added --fast-export option, which seems to be the only one supported way for imports. @andreas: does --fast-export work for you? If so, then I'd say the best we can do is to add a cvsimport command based on --fast-export and submit upstream.

So, it seems that to move forward openSUSE should either allow the installation of both cvsps v3 and v2 (via alternatives?) and have git-cvsimport use v2 this way or simply downgrade cvsps until v3 has matured and integration with Git is released. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Question: is there any usage of cvsps outside of scope git cvsimport? If not, then cvsps 3.10 is simply redundant. That's why I considered downgrade. As I don't use cvsps at all and I get this package not long ago, I have no clue (btw, maybe someone who is using is could take over this package ;-)). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
