Recently I was doing a migration from cvs to svn and experienced a strange
issue. It was ignoring tabs and spl characters (^M) inside the text files.
Did anyone experience similar issues?
Thanks
Ramesh

Subject: Re: "svnadmin load" a huge file
I migrated a large CVS repository (25-50 GB) to SVN years ago on SVN 1.3.
Our repo had many sections (projects) within it. We had to migrate each
project independently so that it's team could coordinate when they migrated
to SVN. As such, I dumped each project when ready and then svnadmin loaded
each dump into it's own path/root (so as not to overwrite anything
previously loaded and unrelated to this project's import).
So, you can do it by controlling which path/portion of CVS you use cvs2vn to
create the dump file from.
