The error message above tells what happened.  cvs2git tried to run the
command

cvs -Q -f -d :local:D:\\CVSRepository co -r1.1 -p -kb Help/.classpath

The command exited with exit status 0 (i.e., no error) but it wrote
output to stderr.  Since such output is not expected, cvs2git considers
it an error.  The output was

    cvs checkout: cwd=D:\cvs2svn-2.4.0 ,current=D:\cvs2svn-2.4.0

My guess is that the "cvs" command on your system is a batch file that
is generating this extra output for debugging purposes.  If so, please
change the batch script, or tell cvs2git to run cvs via a different
command that doesn't generate output by using the --cvs=PATH option.
