parsecvs fails

From: Aneesh Kumar <hidden>

The tagging used by the repository given below is quiet complex.
But it can be used as a test case for all the cvs to git converter.
Even ViewVC and ViewCVS doesn't work with this repository.

Any help in converting it to git ?

rsync -av rsync://ci-linux.cvs.sourceforge.net/cvsroot/ci-linux/ci/ ci-linux/ci/

 Well it seems like most of your ,v files contains tags refering to version 1 
 and yet the first version in the files is 1.1
 So to fix for parsecvs ( and maybe for viewcvs) i think you need to fix
 all symbols at 'top of file' for all ,v files. Change from v1 to v1.1
 with something like sed ',/@#/s/:1*$/:1.1/;,/@#/s/:1;*$/:1.1;/'
