There are a bunch of improvements in convert-repo. Chief among them is
an experimental CVS importer. It uses cvsps to find changesets. It
talks directly to 'cvs server' on localhost or over rsh/ssh. It has
full support for importing branches and tags. To use it, simply run:
convert-repo my-project
This shows off a couple other improvements:
- the source type is autodetected
- the destination is automatically chosen if not supplied
(my-project-hg)
- a destination repo is automatically created if it doesn't exist
- the mapfile is automatically named and created if not supplied
We can also now ask convert-repo to attempt to sort by date with a
--datesort flag.
