Hi Dev Team,

I was trying to migrate source code from CVS to GIT using cvs2git with 2.5.=
3 version in Linux platform. But when I tried to run following below comman=
d experienced "fatal: Branch name doesn't conform to GIT standards: refs/ta=
gs/?" error.

[root@linux]# git fast-import --import-marks=3D../../cvs2svn-tmp/git-marks.=
dat </tmp/dump.dat
fatal: Branch name doesn't conform to GIT standards: refs/tags/?
fast-import: dumping crash report to fast_import_crash_7628

Note: I have successfully generated DAT files without any error.


Could you please check and let me know the possible solutions.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Rajasekhar.
