Thanks for the bug report and sorry for the delayed response.  I think
that you are observing the problem that was fixed by trunk r4642 (not
yet in a cvs2svn release).  Please try the trunk version and let us know
if that fixes your problem.

Please remember that your options file probably has to be adjusted to
account for differences between 2.2.0 and trunk; it might be easiest to
start over with trunk/cvs2git-example.options (which is anyway now
self-contained and therefore easier to work with).

Michael
