Hello everyone.

I tried to use cvs2git on a SourceForge CVS repository
and got the following message:

-------
fatal: Unsupported command: :1 3059214c3439aeb08bcbb7f3ac3df94c568d3495
fast-import: dumping crash report to fast_import_crash_18870
-------

I tried that with several different project subdirectories and
it's always the very first mark that fails, but even of that,
the resulting git repository seems to conatin correct data.

I created a testing package where I kept just one subdirectory
with few files, but the problem is well reproducible even with
a subset of files ...

http://jcapik.fedorapeople.org/files/cvs2git/TEST.tgz

Just unpack the content somewhere and change the username
in the conversion script. The conversion script should
throw the message above.

These are the versions I have installed:
cvs2git-2.3.0-0.9.r5319svn.fc20.noarch
git-1.8.4.2-1.fc20.x86_64

Please, help me with troubleshooting.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Jaromir.
