Subject: cvsimport error: need a valid pathname
Date: Sat, 27 Aug 2005 17:48:26 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <874q9bcu6d.fsf@litku.valo.iki.fi> (raw)

I have already imported a full CVS repository using this command:

git cvsimport -v -d :pserver:anonymous@hostap.epitest.fi:/cvs hostap

It completed without errors and I could use git to access the hostap
history, just like I wanted. But now, when I was trying to get updates
from the CVS repository, I got an error running the command in the
same directory:

$ git cvsimport -v -d :pserver:anonymous@hostap.epitest.fi:/cvs hostap
fileparse(): need a valid pathname at /usr/bin/git-cvsimport-script line 435
$

The documentation says that it should be possible to update
incrementally from the CVS repository. Am I doing something wrong or
is this a bug?

I'm using git updated today from the master branch on Debian unstable.
