Hi,

We are using CVSNT in windows 2003, we have decided to go for linux box and
convert our cvsnt repo into svn repo. We did the following,

a) In windows 2003 we used 7zip to zip our repo and moved to our linux box
b) In linux we untar the repo and used the below methods to convert,

1 cvs2svn --fallback-encoding=UTF-8 --svnrepos testrepo /cvsroot/cvsrepo
2 cvs2svn --fallback-encoding=UTF-8 --default-eol=native
--dumpfile=/opt/testrepo /mnt/cvsroot/cvsrepo
3 cvs2svn --fallback-encoding=UTF-8 --auto-props=/srv/autoprops --svnrepos
testrepo  /mnt/cvsroot/cvsrepo
4 cvs2svn --fallback-encoding=UTF-8 --mime-types=/etc/mime.types
--eol-from-mime-type --no-default-eol --svnrepos testrepo /opt/cvsroot

By using the above methods all the conversion was successful, but we get
eol error in some files.

Since this conversion is from windows to linux, we get eol line problem,
adding to this, initially we tried the (1) method the conversion was
successful but some files like
jar, image and zip are corrupted. So we tried all other steps (2,3,4) but
this too seems to be not working.

Kindly help us to convert our cvsnt repo into svn.

Thanks
Vinodh
