Subject: files missing after converting a cvs repository to git

Hi
One of the prrojects I am involved with is currently looking into
migrating from cvs to git, therefore we have been investigating this
by setting up a git repository that tracks cvs, however there are some
very strange things going on and I was hoping someone could offer some
insight into what is going on.
I use the following git cvsimport command to import the repository:
$ git cvsimport -v -a -i -k
-d:pserver:user@server:port/path/to/cvs/repo -C /path/to/new/git/repo
module
this ran successfully with no warnings or errors. However, when I
checkout the new git repository that are several files missing from
the git checkout that are present in the cvs checkout.
Does anyone know why this would happen, or how to find out? This is a
major problem because we will be unable to migrate to cvs until this
can be solved.
Cheers
Adam
