Converting large CVS repositories

[Ulrich Spoerlein]

Hi all,

I'm currently trying to convert the FreeBSD src and ports repositories
to mercurial. Using tailor I faced several problems during the
conversion, besides it's running out of memory quickly (only 1GB
available, sorry).

I also tried Simon Schuberts fromcvs but it has severe problems with
lots of branches and is blowing the manifest to 10GB and more.

Has anyone ever accomplished creating hg repos from FreeBSD? How did
they do it?

Cheers,
Ulrich Spoerlein
