+'git-cvsimport' [-o <branch-for-HEAD>] [-h] [-v] [-d <CVSROOT>] [-s <subst>]
+ [-p <options-for-cvsps>] [-C <git_repository>] [-i] [-P <file>]
+ [-m] [-M regex] [<CVS_module>]
DESCRIPTION
-s <subst>::
Substitute the character "/" in branch names with <subst>
+-A <author-conv-file>::
+ CVS by default uses the unix username when writing its
+ commit logs. Using this option and an author-conv-file
+ in this format
+
+ exon=Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se>
+ spawn=Simon Pawn <spawn@frog-pond.org>
+
+ git-cvsimport will make it appear as those authors had
+ their GIT_AUTHOR_NAME and GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL set properly
+ all along.
+
+ For convenience, this data is saved to $GIT_DIR/cvs-authors
+ each time the -A option is provided and read from that same
+ file each time git-cvsimport is run.
+
+ It is not recommended to use this feature if you intend to
+ export changes back to CVS again later with
+ git-link[1]::git-cvsexportcommit.
+
OUTPUT
------
If '-v' is specified, the script reports what it is doing.
