This sure seems like a FAQ, but I can't figure it out.

I'm converting my project with

/Users/Shared/cvs2svn-2.4.0/cvs2svn --use-cvs --encoding=UTF-8 --dumpfile=cvs2svn-dump /tmp/PROJECT

then end up with differences like this:
<       $Log: FILE.h,v $
<       Revision 1.4  2007/06/06 22:43:53  USER
---
>  * $Log: not supported by cvs2svn $

In the Extraction options info for --use-internal-co, it says $Log$ is not
handled.  So I thought that meant that in the other two cases (---use-rcs and
---use-cvs), it was handled.

I also have an older version cvs2svn-1.5.0, from the last time I was converging
a repository.  Maybe this has changed since then?  (I sure thought the old
repository used $Log$, though maybe someone removed all of them before I
converted it.)

How can I make this "just work", so it does expand and my svn & cvs 
versions match?


(As for the other problem I had, I still haven't figured that one out.. I'm
just removing that test from my local copy of the repository before I run
cvs2svn.. Strangely, there is another file with a space in it, and my cvs is
_not_ a shell script.. so there does seem to be something stranger going on,
but I haven't been able to figure it out.)
