Re: CVS -> SVN -> Git

Has anyone managed to succssfully import a Subversion repository that

It looks like cvs2svn has created a rather big mess.   It has created 
single commits that change files in more than one branch and/or tag. It 
also creates tags using more than one commit.  Now I come to try and 
import the Subversion history into git and I'm having trouble creating a 
sensible stream to feed into fast-import.

Did you try first converting the old CVS repo to git and then adding the svn changes?  That might give you much better results.
