Thanks All,

I successfully converted over a dozen cvs repos to git repos. One repo was =
2.4GiB with 4 years of history.
I used Ubuntu 14 on Parallels 10, as after I managed to get everything work=
ing using macports I hit a key/value table maximum size issue which I could=
n't be bothered with.

I used the simple commands below (based on your instructions) for each conv=
ersion. Example was rxtx-devel repo.

Cheers,
Graham
