Post #214,828 by admin 7/14/05 4:55:12 PM Reply	I've never done a conversion There are scripts out there that people have used with varying degrees of success. The issue being, as I understand it, that all CVS trees do not necessarily follow the same naming and tagging conventions. The easiest conversion, obviously, loses all of your change history. I doubt that this is a desired situation for you, though. :-P Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."

A starting point for subversion hook information is at: [link\|http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch05s02.html#svn-ch-5-sect-2.1\|http://svnbook.red-b...svn-ch-5-sect-2.1] Good luck, Tony

Does CVS really not have a hook for this? - (ben_tilly) - (6) - July 14, 2005, 04:16:32 PM EDT
