I don't really know what the pictures are trying to represent, but I
have the feeling that what you are looking for is a multiproject
conversion [1].  If that is not the case, please try explaining your
problem using text (e.g., showing the output of CVS / Subversion
commands compared to what you expect) rather than screenshots of tools
that not everybody is familiar with.
