== Importing RCS files to a repository ==

STILL WORKING ON THIS PAGE

=== Initial Import ===
Just importing the miriad tree as it stands is unsatisfactory, because we lose the revision history.

{{{
 % mkdir miriad
 % rsync -av /nfs/atapplic/miriad/ miriad/
 % cvs2svn --dumponly --dumpfile=20071123.svndump miriad
 # assuming we have a repo at /srv/svn/projects/miriad
 % svn import < 20071123.svndump

}}}

=== next phase ===
need to remove the compiled binaries
need to check out the code (and svn add all the files?)
  No - just do the cvs2svn dump. that does the checkout but it leaves
  the source in the '.rcs' directory. Must move it from there.
  The dump leaves darwin_ppc, darwin_x86 there as well.
  These contain just a short GNUmakedefs file.

need to change the chkout, chklog targets
need to add handlers of .svn directories

makefile has an 'ftp' target, the comment about solaris-only is wrong.
