Subject: Not a valid object name refs/heads/t20050127-arm during git-cvsimport
Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 18:18:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071204171833.GD29315@radix50.net> (raw)

Hello,

I want to import a CVS repo myrepo into git. I copied CVSHEAD and myrepo
dirs from the cvs server to /home/ibr/tmp and issued the following
command:

git-cvsimport -p x -k -o cvshead -d/home/ibr/tmp -C zzz myrepo/drv

It fails with the following messages:

Initialized empty Git repository in /home/ibr/tmp/zzz/.git/
fatal: Not a valid object name refs/heads/t20050127-arm
read-tree failed: 32768

t20050127-arm is a branch that exists not for all files under
myrepo/drv.

How can I import this repo?

I use git 1.5.3.6-1.1 from Debian unstable and cvsps 2.1-2 from Debian
stable on a Debian testing/unstable system.

Thanks in advance,
