I assume that this is the same problem you reported on the git mailing
list.  For the record, Jonathan Nieder's suggestion was that you forgot
to checkout the master branch (for performance reasons, "git
fast-import" doesn't update the working copy while it is working).  I
just updated the cvs2git instructions to make this clearer.

If this was *not* your problem, then please give us more information.
What exactly did you do and what do you see that makes you believe that
it failed?

Michael
