The cvs2git script has to get the contents of file revisions out of CVS.
 By default, the way it does so is to use the "cvs" program itself like
the command line above.  Probably if you run the same command by hand in
the command line, you will get the same output to stderr.

--use-cvs is the default.  The other alternatives are --use-rcs
(requires software from RCS) and --use-external-blob-generator, which
doesn't require any external software.

The problem is not with how you are invoking cvs2git but rather how CVS
is installed on your system.  It is generating extraneous output, and
that is bothering cvs2git.

If all else fails, maybe you could wrap cvs in a batch file that
discards stderr explicitly, then use the --cvs option to tell cvs2git
where to find your batch file.  I'm not a Windows user so I can't help
you with the details.
