CVS migration help

[Thomas Manson]

I've look to it... but didn't tryed yet...

It really misses straightforward howto (for all tools except bzr cvsimport)


I guess I've to  change this config file of tailor :


[pxlib]
root-directory = /wip/sf.net/pxlib
target = darcs:pxlib
source = cvs:pxlib
subdir = pxlib

[darcs:pxlib]
[cvs:pxlib]
repository = :pserver:anonymous at cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/pxlib
module = pxlib
encoding = iso-8859-1

to something with target= bzr:something...


To ease the migration of cvs people like me that barely know only cvs,
nothing about bzr, full howto that covers standart use case is a must
have...

Really, i'm now on holliday so i've got some time to search, but in the real
world (ie : on work time), I would i've tryed one or two hours and would
says :

Well, let's not loose time... use cvs.
