	The SVN repo isn't mine, it's Nik's... it's public and at
svn://jc.ngo.org.uk:/nik/libtap/trunk/ .

	The CVS repo, sure thing. Already been through this with Marc
Tooley@Perforce.

	Using VCP to convert this causes an invalid RevML file to be
generated:

	The revml output is here:

	http://www.crackerjack.net/test.rml.gz

	The error messages I posted to the RevML mailing list, but as I said
before, I subscribed to the list, never got a confirmation, never saw my own
message come back, and the RevML archive page stops at December 2005, so I'm
not convinced anybody got it. I've attached my original post to this
message.

	If you want to poke around the CVS yourself, that's fine. I'm
already running closed-source software by you guys on my server so you
could effectively have access already. ;-) Just send me an SSH2 public key
and I'll fix you up with an account.

	Cheers,
		Tyler

CVS2P4 doesn't work either...

I'm trying to import my CVS repository into perforce. If I try to do a
direct copy, I get the following output and only the first few files of my
repo are imported:

branched revision has same name as parent
('depot/main/apps/mod_bt/dev/src/libbtt/Makefile'):
    parent:   /mod_bt/src/libbtt/Makefile#1.1 added
    branched: /mod_bt/src/libbtt/Makefile#1.1.1.0 branch @2 <cns> (<undef>)
<undef> <undef> "[vcp] create branch 'cns'"
Perhaps a Map: filter is missing/broken

Dumping the CVS tree into a revml file works. However, trying to import that
revml file into perforce comes up with this result:

vcp v0.9, change number 4232 (2004/03/18)
vcp: running p4 clients
vcp: appending required ChangeSets, StringEdit filters
Patch line disagrees with source line 7:
   source file:
'/home/faraway/dev/vcp_state/revml%58%%58%test%46%rml/source_files/CHANGES/-/1.1'
   patch file :
'/home/faraway/dev/vcp_state/revml%58%%58%test%46%rml/source_files/CHANGES/-/delta'
   result file:
'/home/faraway/dev/vcp_state/revml%58%%58%test%46%rml/source_files/CHANGES/-/1.2'
   source line: "mod_bt 0.0.3, initial release"
   patch  line: "mod_bt 0.0.3, initial release+mod_bt 0.0.3 - initial public
release"
 at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/VCP/Source/revml.pm line 556



I've uploaded my revml file here for inspection:


http://www.crackerjack.net/test.rml.gz


I'd really like to get moved over to perforce ASAP... Does anybody know
what's going on here, or what I can do to make the import work?

	Thanks,
		Tyler
