cvs2git should have shown the exact cvs command that it was trying to
run and the stderr output that came from it. You can run the same cvs
command yourself (e.g., from the command line) and you should see the
same output. Do what you have to do to get the extraneous output to go away=
.

ExternalBlobGenerator won't work for you [1] because it doesn't
understand the CVSNT extensions to the RCS file format.

use any of those extensions.
