Hi Ryan

I thank you very much for your reply.

Whatever you mentioned is true though this is also true that mapping between the two repositories is very much possible. I achieved to some extent on my own, though it is quite complicated.

As I mentioned earlier, I used following command to take the dump of the SVN repository -

svnadmin dump home/svn/svnRepository > svnDump

This dump file has the sequential listing of “cvs2svn:cvs-rev” parameters for all the migrated CVS modules. For example (relevant lines have been put in [[]] brackets) -

[[Revision-number: 17]]
Prop-content-length: 125
Content-length: 125
K 7
svn:log
V 26
*** empty log message ***
K 10
svn:author
V 4
gabe
K 8
svn:date
V 27
2002-09-11T20:30:23.000000Z
PROPS-END

[[Node-path: trunk/fmt​crt]]
Node-kind: dir
Node-action: change
Prop-content-length: 116
Text-content-length: 5154
Text-content-md5: 554dd3c63a9a18fbc40af7cc24e2f6b4
Content-length: 5270

K 15
[[cvs2svn:cvs-rev]]
V 3
[[2.7]]
K 12
svn:keywords
V 23
Author Date Id Revision
K 13
svn:eol-style
V 6
native
PROPS-END

As we can see that the sample of dump file contains the current SVN revision number in line [[Revision-number:17]] for the module "fmt​crt" which earlier had revision number [[2.7]] in CVS repository. It also implies that the CVS module "fmt​crt" now has the path [[Node-path: trunk/fmt​crt]].

So it is proved that we can map this (and we have achieved the same for almost 3500+ modules) but the only problem is it becomes recurrsively complicated, specially when it comes to "Node-copyfrom-rev: 523" and "Node-copyfrom-path" in place of "Revision-number:" and "Node-path:" respectively. We need to see a log file for a better understanding.

That is why asked if there some other way to map this? As we require the solution desparately!

Thanks Again.
